libvirt users - Nov 2015 - how to make dhcrelay service use libvirt's interfaces?

hi everybody

in my libvirtd I use bridge with route forward mode,
Problem for me is dhcrelay.service on host which is starting 
before libvirtd thus not listening on libvirt interface.
OS is RHEL7.
I wonder if you know how to fix it, besides restarting 
dhcrelay that is.

many thanks

You could make that happen automatically with a libvirt "network
hook":

   http://libvirt.org/hooks.html

You would want to create a hook script in /etc/libvirt/hooks/network 
that takes action (restarts dhcrelay) when $1 is the network in 
question, and $2 is "started" (you may also want to take action when
$2
is "stopped" just for symmetry). You'll be able to learn the name
of the
bridge device by examining the XML of the network that your script will 
receive on stdin. Searching for "network" on the above page will give 
more details about what is possible.
