I suspect that that host-deploy fails cause you have in place a leftover VDSM cert from the previous attempt which is still signed by your previous attempt engine and so it fails to match this new engine: on the second attempt hosted-engine-setup deployed again the engine appliance creating a new instance with different certs.

I decided to restart clean and in fact all went well.

engine is up and admin web portal accessible and host results up.

I expected storage to be configured inside admin web portal but apparently I don't see anything already configured and also I don't see the sh engine VM listed... is it correct?

Filesystem layout at this time on the hypervisor is this:

[root@ovc71 tmp]# df -h

BTW: what is the 2Gb file system on loop device?

I configured the storage domain part as NFS, pointing to ovc71.localdomain.local:/NFS_DOMAIN

Reading page at

http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Self_Hosted_Engine

it is not clear to me what to do next if I want for example keep a single host with its sh engine as a replacement concept of what before was all-in-one... and start creating VMs....

Also, I didn't restart my hypervisor yet.

WHat should be the shutdown procedure? SImply run shutdown on hypervisor or

1) shutdwn engine vm

2) shutdown hypervisor
