Ok, I think I must have miss read the 'Preparations' section of the guide.

So i really want to be running this on one of the physical hosts already in the cluster?

No, please use an additional host or remove it from the existing setup before creating the backup.

 

In which case, when I'm asked for storage should I use the same storage area which is already setup for virtual machines ( I think last time I tried the installer asked if it was for a new domain or not ).

You need a dedicated storage domain just for the hosted-engine VM.

 

Thanks for you patience
