I think that you should use NetworkManager-wait-online.service In RHEL 8. Take 
a look at its man page. It only allows the system reach network-online after 
all network interfaces are online. So, if your OP interfaces are managed by 
Network Manager, you can use it.

Thanks for the info.  We can install the systemd-networkd RPM from the EPEL 
repo as you suggest.

I tried to understand the properties of systemd-networkd before implementing it 
in our compute nodes.  While there are lots of networkd man-pages, it's harder 
to find an overview of the actual properties of networkd.  This is what I found:

* Networkd is a service included in recent versions of Systemd.  It seems to be 
an alternative to NetworkManager.

* Red Hat has stated that systemd-networkd is NOT going to be implemented in 
RHEL 8 or 9.

* Comparing systemd-networkd and NetworkManager:
https://fedoracloud.readthedocs.io/en/latest/networkd.html

* Networkd is described in the Wikipedia article
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd

While networkd seems to be really nifty, I hesitate to replace NetworkManager 
by networkd on our EL8 and EL9 systems because this is an unsupported and only 
lightly tested setup, and it may require additional work to keep our systems 
up-to-date in the future.

It seems to me that Max Rutkowski's solution in
https://github.com/maxlxl/network.target_wait-for-interfaces is less intrusive 
than converting to systemd-networkd.

Best regards,
Ole
