What is the correct way to shut down a cluster ?

I shutdown my 4.1 cluster following this guide https://github.com/rharmonson/richtech/wiki/OSVDC-Series:-oVirt-3.6-Cluster-Shutdown-and-Startup as the NAS hosting the nfs mounts needed rebooting after updates.

( I realise the guide is for 3.6, surely not that different ? )

It seams fine.
 

However hosted engine isn't starting now.

  failed liveliness check

So it seams that the engine VM is up but the engine is not responding.
 

I've tried connecting from the host starting the HE vm to see what's going on with:

virsh console HostedEngine

   I don't know what authentication it requires, tried engine admin details and root os...

hosted-engine --console 
 

hosted-engine --add-console-password
Enter password:
no graphics devices configured

unsurprisingly, remote-viewer vnc://localhost:5900
fails with Unable to connect to the graphic server vnc://localhost:5900

What can I do next ?

Check the status of the engine.
