I apologize for this late reply.I had been trying again from reinstalling
the host.
Thanks to you, I was able to install HostedEngine in second and subsequent
hosts.
I think that I could not find this option by myself.
Even if you never heard about hosted-engine in previous versions and 4.1
was your first attempt? Any suggestions for improvement to make it easier
to find?
I'm grateful for your support.
You might want to open one or more RFEs for some clarifications in the
interface - both command line and cockpit - e.g. that if the storage
domain is not empty, a message will be emitted saying something like:
"To add this host as an additional one to an existing hosted-engine HA
cluster, please use the engine web administration ui or the API/SDK".
Best,
