Hi folks!
There are even more links than I mentioned above and also others confused
by the process:

I'm still looking for an answer here - do I shut down my existing hosted
VM and follow:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409112#c12 ?
will I need to provision this on a new piece of metal that will be added
to the stack?
Since 4.2.7 you have --restore-from-file=backup.tar.gz option in
hosted-engine tool.
You should take a backup with engine-backup and redeploy on a new storage
domain.
It will be fully automated and at the end you will have a new engine VM on
a different storage domain; everything else will be imported with the
backup.
The old HE storage domain will be still visible in the new engine if you
have to move other disks created there or similar, after that you can
manually decommission it.
Thanks,
Joel
