I was setting up our spacewalk repo for ovirt due to auto provisioning 
engine and node based on centos distro, but I was surprised that you 
can't sign with gpg key your rpms, instead gluster rpms is signed with 
key id 89ccae8b available on her site

Why you don't sign your rpms?

e.g:
$ wget 
http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.3.2/rpm/EL/6/noarch/ovirt-engine-3.3.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm
$ rpm -K -v ovirt-engine-3.3.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm
ovirt-engine-3.3.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm:
     Digest SHA1 header: OK (f8cf0a7592ae3d8d298813cf61ec8b4e2ad6b6f6)
     MD5 digest: OK (bc4b66e0791b3ef5dd8e9b49828ad7d8)

instead gluster rpms:
$ wget 
http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/LATEST/EPEL.repo/epel-6/x86_64/glusterfs-3.4.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
$ rpm -K -v glusterfs-3.4.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
glusterfs-3.4.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm:
     Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 89ccae8b: NOKEY
     Header SHA1 digest: OK (e71040f320da087e6e9012102e0e59f134259d2a)
     V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 89ccae8b: NOKEY
     MD5 digest: OK (01e72fe3ed97ba849327cafe43ca5d45)
