I'm not sure what to make of this, but looking at /var/log/messages on all 3 of the hosts,it appears that the kernel disabled my oVirt networks at the same exact time on all 3 hosts.
This occurred twice this morning, once around 8am and again around 8:30am:

ovirtmgmt is the storage network.
Private is the frond-end network.

I actually don't have *any* backup storage domains currently, and no backups to speak of, so that wouldn't have been a cause from this morning.
My goal for this week is to install a 4th physical server with some spinning disks, and expose those as an NFS mount point so that I can build a backup domain.
I also hope to get the 10Gbps network cards installed on the remaining two hosts, to get 10Gbps connectivity up and running between all 3 of the HCI hosts.

The symptoms are similar to a loss of quorum (like in a  network outage/disruption).

Check the gluster logs for any indication of the root cause.
As you have only one gigabit network, consider enabling cluster choose-local option which will make FUSE client to try to read from local brick instead of a remote one.

Theoretically congestion on storage network could be the root cause, but this is usually a symptom and not the real problem. Maybe you got too many backups running in parallel ?
