[Openstack] Query about dnsmasq and neutron-ovs-cleanup [IceHouse]

Hello,

I followed the exact steps mentioned at:

http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/install-guide/install/yum/content/

.. to create a 3 node Openstack IceHouse environment (controller, network &
compute).

I see that "neutron-ovs-cleanup" service is present on network & compute
node, but it is turned off on both. Should this be set to on (in
chkconfig)? If yes, then on which node should this service supposed to run
(I recon network node, but still wanna confirm with the community).

Also, I have the same concern about "dnsmasq" service. I see that this
service is installed on network node, but is turned off in chkconfig.

However I can find a dnsmasq process currently running:

nobody   10602  0.0  0.0  12884   772 ?        S    14:09   0:00 dnsmasq
--no-hosts --no-resolv --strict-order --bind-interfaces
--interface=tap47c93394-55 --except-interface=lo
--pid-file=/var/lib/neutron/dhcp/18018aab-920b-42d4-99c3-c036155e60bf/pid
--dhcp-hostsfile=/var/lib/neutron/dhcp/18018aab-920b-42d4-99c3-c036155e60bf/host
--addn-hosts=/var/lib/neutron/dhcp/18018aab-920b-42d4-99c3-c036155e60bf/addn_hosts
--dhcp-optsfile=/var/lib/neutron/dhcp/18018aab-920b-42d4-99c3-c036155e60bf/opts
--leasefile-ro --dhcp-range=tag0,192.168.1.0,static,86400s
--dhcp-lease-max=256 --conf-file= --domain=openstacklocal

The Openstack official guide for RHEL flavors does not mention whether
these services should be turned on during server reboot (using chkconfig).

My concern is whether to start them automatically in case of a server
reboot. Please assist.

Regards,
Vimal
