Public bug reported:
This is similar to #689734 I believe.
When starting haproxy using a DNS name on the 'server' line haproxy
fails to start, giving the message:
```
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule systemd[1]: Starting HAProxy Load Balancer...
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule haproxy[1146]: [ALERT] 124/190940 (1146) : parsing
[/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg:157] : 'server scanmon' :
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule haproxy[1146]: [ALERT] 124/190940 (1146) : Failed to
initialize server(s) addr.
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule systemd[1]: haproxy.service: Control process exited,
code=exited status=1
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule systemd[1]: haproxy.service: Failed with result
'exit-code'.
May 05 19:09:40 hyrule systemd[1]: Failed to start HAProxy Load Balancer.
```
In this case the server statement was:
` server scanmon myservername.mydomain.org:8000`
Changing it to use the IP address corrected the problem.
I believe there is a missing dependency for DNS in the unit file.
