One thing I did, I added an additional 4 to make it 8GB to the machine.

 

And it still does the same thing, but it is saying there is a problem with the systemctl “Closing up” error.

 

How is that related to the amount of memory, at present, I just want to bring up the web interface and get it installed.

Keep replies on list, so that other can help too if necessary.
I think the init service should have been installed anyway.
What you get from the command

# systemctl status ovirt-engine

for example on my system I get this
 
[g.cecchi@tekkaman ~]$ sudo systemctl status ovirt-engine
ovirt-engine.service - oVirt Engine
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ovirt-engine.service; enabled)

Jun 13 00:24:55 tekkaman.localdomain.local systemd[1]: Started oVirt Engine.

And also the command

# journalctl -r -a -u ovirt-engine

for example I had a failure on November and the comamnd at a certain point gives:

Nov 24 20:27:29 tekkaman.localdomain.local systemd[1]: Unit ovirt-engine.service entered failed state.
Nov 24 20:27:29 tekkaman.localdomain.local systemd[1]: Failed to start oVirt Engine.

so your output should contain something useful.

Also, id you run
engine-cleanup
before running engine-setup again after adding memory? It should help too.
