You have to clean up these references to let the engine correctly import the new hosted-engine env. With 4.1 we introduced two new options to engine-backup in order to make correctly working for a backup took on a previous hosted engine env, they are: --he-remove-storage-vm Removes the hosted-engine storage domain, all its entities and the hosted-engine VM during restore. --he-remove-hosts Removes all the hosted-engine hosts during restore. Hosted-engine host should be redeployed as well since they point to the previous env as well. The correct path to migrate from a previous hosted-engine env to a new one is: - set global maintenance mode on the previous env - set maintenance mode for the hosted engine hosts on the previous engine - take the backup of the previous engine Follow https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/engine/migrate-to-hosted-en... adding '--he-remove-storage-vm --he-remove-hosts ' to the DB restore command.
