It's not a folder: it's a tar file directly saved over a VDSM volume.
Editing it's a bit tricky.

With a 4.0 engine, when you choose to deploy a new host from the
webadmin or from the rest API you can also choose to deploy it as an
hosted-engine host if the engine has been deployed with hosted-engine.
In this case, if I'm not wrong, you can also specify a different gateway value.
