After getting past the proxy issue, I was finally able to run the
engine-setup --reconfigure-optional-components. The new
ManagedBlockStorage storage domain exists, and I was able to create a
disk. However, I am unable to attach the disk to a running VM.
The engine.log shows the following, with a reference to a possible
cinderlib error ("cinderlib execution failed"):

The /var/log/cinder/ directory on the ovirt node is empty, and doesn't
exist on the engine itself.
To verify that it's not a cephx permission issue, I tried accessing the
block storage from both the engine and the ovirt node using the
credentials I set up in the ManagedBlockStorage setup page:
[root@ovirt4]# rbd --id ovirt ls rbd.ovirt.data
volume-5419640e-445f-4b3f-a29d-b316ad031b7a

Where else can I look to see where it's failing?

When you ran `engine-setup` did you enable cinderlib preview (it
will
not be enabled by default)?
It should handle the creation of the database automatically, if you
didn't you can enable it by running:
`engine-setup --reconfigure-optional-components`
