Thank you Didi for your time in looking into this.  I will contact Oracle with regards to this issue.

P.S. I must also learn Ansible quickly :)  Regards, Lee.

I didn't see your message to the list. Now adding the list back.

It seems to have failed in:

This is Oracle-specific code, not part of oVirt. I suggest that you
contact Oracle.

Good luck and best regards,

This time I setup a bridge BR0 and disable EM1 (the first Ethernet interface on the host), and then created Bond0 on-top of BR0.  Both Bond0 and EM2 (the second Ethernet interface on the host) were up. And then I tried again using Ovirt-Cockpit wizard, with the Engine VM set on BR0, and the deployment of Engine VM simply failed.  The Engine and Host are using the same network numbers (192.168.2.0/24) and they resolved correctly.  I read the logs in var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log but there wasn't any error reported.
