Hi Simone
you should see it also adding new hosts, it should look like this:

That one is from 4.1.0
By looking at your image, I found that this recognition discrepancy is due
to localization.
In English, Hosted Engine was displayed even in my environment.
There is also an explicit icon to highlight which host is running the
engine VM and which ones are ready for it:

Yes, I noticed this icon soon. It's very good.
Deploying from CLI is explicitly prevented and it's pointing you
to the
web UI with this message:
'Setup of additional hosts using this software is not allowed
anymore.
Please use the engine web interface to deploy any additional hosts.'
I'm sorry I haven't tried cli install in 4.1.1, but I think it important to
restrict it as you said.
It was a great relief for me personally to automate setting such as lvm,
glusterfs, firewalld and selinux.
There are no particular points to improve.
Thank you for your support.
