I'ved added a record to the DNS server here:

OK, and how the engine VM will get that address?
Are you using DHCP? do you have a DHCP reservation for the MAC address you
are using on the engine VM?
Are you configuring it with a static IP?
This IP address is on the physical network that the host is on (host is on
10.0.0.171). I trust this is correct and I should not resolve to a natted
IP instead. I notice that regardless of this record, the name
ovirt-engine.example.com resolves to a natted IP: 192.168.124.51 because
the ansible script adds an entry to /etc/hosts:
192.168.124.51 ovirt-engine.example.com
While the script is running, if I I can successfully ping
ovirt-engine.example.com, it responds on 192.168.124.51. So as you say:
"host can correctly resolve the name of the engine VM", but it's not the
DNS record's IP. If I remove the DNS record and run hosted-engine
--deploy, I get error:
[ ERROR ] Host name is not valid: ovirt-engine.example.com did not
resolve into an IP address
Anyway, I added back the DNS record and ran hosted-engine --deploy
command, it failed at:
[ INFO ] TASK [Clean /etc/hosts on the host]
[ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an
option with an undefined variable. The error was: list object has no
element 0\n\nThe error appears to have been in
'/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ansible/create_target_vm.yml': line
396, column 5, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact
syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n changed_when:
True\n - name: Clean /etc/hosts on the host\n ^ here\n"}
To debug, I added tasks to create_target_vm.yml that output the values of
local_vm_ip.std_out_lines[0] and FQDN that are used in this task, then ran
the usual deploy command again. They are both localhost:
[ INFO ] TASK [show local_vm_ip.std_out_lines[0] that will be written to
etc hosts]
[ INFO ] ok: [localhost]
[ INFO ] TASK [show FQDN]
[ INFO ] ok: [localhost]
This time, it gets past [Clean /etc/hosts on the host], but hangs at [
INFO ] TASK [Check engine VM health] same as before.
This is fine, the bootstrap local VM runs over a natted network then, once
ready it will be shutdown and moved to the shared storage. At that point it
will be restarted on your management network.
I catted /etc/hosts while it was hanging and it contains:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6
localhost6.localdomain6
The ovirt-engine.example.com has been deleted! I pinged
ovirt-engine.example.com and it now resolves to its IP on the physical
network: 10.0.0.109. So I added back this /etc/hosts entry:
192.168.124.51 ovirt-engine.example.com
Please avoid this.
It subsequently errored:

How can I check the hosted-engine's IP address to ensure name resolution
is correct?
You can connect to that VM with VNC and check the IP there.
