After getting some sleep.  I mounted the volume outside of oVirt.  Then 
chown it to user 36.36.  Then umounted.  After doing that I was able to 
mount the nfs share inside oVirt.   I was then able to bring the Data 
Storage and the Data Center on-line.  I am uploading ISO right now to 
test creating VM's
