Well it looks like you are using the network service rather than the

Yes. That's the way our security experts made the models I use to setup my 
servers.
I'll test a migration to NetworkManager, and take their advice on it.

Note that the behavior you're seeing is documented:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/NetworkTarget/

If you're using NetworkManager, you can "systemctl enable NetworkManager-wait-online.service" and you won't have to override any of the individual services.

The network service is not blocking  the flow so it executes and systemd
carries on ...

 From the point of view of the system as soon as /etc/init.d/network start
has been called the service is running as a state... as you can see from
your logs lots of other services also start before the network interface
itself is up.
I understand this, but why only on one of my servers ? Is the order the 
services start only a question of latencies ?

Basically, yes.


Incidentally I just tried a quick test in a VM and it would appear
NetworkManager.service completed with an IP on the network interface before
network.target was considered reached ... you may want to test this on your
system to see if it's a race condition

It is, as documented above.
