Hi Mark,
The error is correct, hosted-engine-1.pcstrac.com is not a valid hostname:
$ host hosted-engine-1.pcstrac.com
$
I'm lost, tho -- was this an error that occurred on the host during
hosted-engine --deploy, or was it an error that occurred in the hosted
enging VM when running engine-setup?
If the former, you need to ensure that you have a real DNS name for your
ovirt engine. It's unclear (to me) that using /etc/hosts is sufficient.
However looking at the logs, it looks like it can locally resolve (to
xx.yy.18.122).
You might need to answer "Yes" to the /etc/hosts question..
The log seems to get far enough along that it presents you the engine vm
console URL? It looks like the issue is that the engine vm cannot resolve
its own name.

Folks,
Thanks to Didi in another thread I'm making progress. (Lesson learned,
choose 'disk' and not 'cdrom' when using the he-appliance.)
So I reset to a fresh CentOS 7, installed various software packages
including ovirt.
I configed eth0 with a /32 public IP. I also added an alias for a
x.x.x.1/29 on eth0:1.
Finally I config'ed dnsmasq to provide both dhcp and dns (ensuring that it
will read from /etc/hosts before forwarding dns requests) and added the
IPs and hostsnames to /etc/hosts from the /29 IPs which are to be used by
the VMs.
Things proceeded nicely till resolving the he vm fqdn. (I tested to make
sure that the he vm fqdm would resolve **Before** I ran 'hosted-engine
--deploy'.)

The one thing I forgot is to update /etc/resolv.conf to include the host
though I don't know if this matters...
Logs attached.
I suspect I've very close to having this working but am admittedly
stumped.
Pointers appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
