If you start from scratch, I think the best way is to remove the entire
database.
A scenario that can lead to this state:
install ovirt 3.3 (e.g. nightly, beta1)
engine-setup
engine-cleanup
this leaves an empty 'engine' database
install ovirt 3.2
engine-setup
this will fail
Solution:
before installing 3.2, do inside psql:
drop database engine;
# service postgresql stop
# rm -fr /var/lib/pgsql/data
This is naturally simpler, if you have no other database there.
# engine-setup
