Ah.. I see.
In "New Host" window there is a section named "Hosted Engine" and it
defaults to "None" and I was give that..:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvME9CVGFRLTB0b0k/view?usp=sha...
I didn't know it.
I have verified I was able to put one host into maintenance (the only one
running VM was automatically migrated) and then select "Reinstall" and in
the proposed window I select now "Deploy" in similar hosted engine section:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvWTJMQXpwbHJYc00/view?usp=sha...
It seems ok now
Mostly, yes.

This is the address you provided in the ui, right?
I suggest to use a fqdn and make it well-resolvable. It will then be
easier to change the IP address if needed.

Is it?
I was also able now to migrate the hosted engine vm to the second host and
to connect without problems to its console.
I'm going to change also the third host.
Two notes:
1) it would be nice to pre-filter the drop down box when you have to choose
the host where migrate the hosted engine...
So that if there are no hosts available you will be given a related message
without choice at all and if there is a subset of eligible hosts inside the
cluster, you will be proposed only to choose one of them and not all the
hosts inside the cluster.
Makes sense, please open an RFE to track this. Thanks.
2) If the gui option becomes the default and preferred way to deploy hosts
in self hosted engine environments I think it should be put in clearer shape
that if you follow the default action you would not have high availability
for the hosted engine vm.
Or changing the default action to "Deploy", or showing a popup if the hosted
engine vm has only one host configured for it but there are other hosts in
the cluster.
Just my opinion.
Makes sense too, but I wonder if people will then be annoyed by forgetting
to uncheck it even after having enough HA hosts, which does have its cost
(both actual resource use and also reservations, IIUC). Perhaps we should
enable by default and/or remind only until you have enough HA hosts, which
can be a configurable number (and default e.g. to 3).
Best regards,
