For vdsm without ssl to work with libvirt you need to change the libvirt 
config:

/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf needs the following settings -

listen_tcp=1 # by vdsm
listen_tls=0 # by vdsm


and /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf needs:
spice_tls=0 # by vdsm


and of course restart libvirt and vdsm.

vdsm and ovirt-engine work together by adding the vdsm host to 
ovirt-engine through the webadmin or rest api.

Storage is also added in the same way.
