I guess we should put in a service {} stanza.

Sounds like a good way to make sure it stays online, but I'm not sure if we should rely on just puppet for starting services (after all, it might take ~20 mins). On the other hand, we have good puppet monitoring (and no init.d/upstart monitoring), so we might as well rely on it.
