Agree with Chris here, regular CentOS 7 hosts may be easier to manage in this case.  Not much persists when updating oVirt node, some select folders/files persist on updates such as /etc and /root for example but I'm not sure how custom packages/rpms are handled.  I believe there may be ways you can have packages persist but I'm not familiar with the process.  I know the idea of package persistence was brought up before but I'm not sure if/when/how it was implemented.

oVirt Node has the regular CentOS yum repos disabled, but Dell's OMSA
expects them (and possibly some things from EPEL? can't remember).  You
can try "yum --enablerepo={base,updates} install srvadmin-all".

I'm not sure how oVirt Node might handle the additional packages, what
will happen on oVirt upgrades, etc. though.  From what I understand,
installing additional software on Node isn't really supported.  You
might be better off installing "regular" CentOS and then oVirt, without
using the Node method.
