The error comes from here:
TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Parse OVF]
***************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [virthyp04.virt.in.bmrc.ox.ac.uk]: FAILED! => {"changed": false,
"msg": "missing parameter(s) required by 'attribute': value"}
but are you really using it with ansible 2.8 alpha 1?
I'd strongly suggest to switch back to a stable release of ansible which is
currently 2.7.9.
That one was due to:
already address this on ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup to be compatible
with future ansible releases.

Ok so we're getting very close now, weird OVF error:

If not specified by the user,
a random unicast MAC address is randomly generated here:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/blob/master/ta...
for sure it's unicast but maybe we should make it more robust on reserved
values.
Simply try again for now; I'll open an issue to track it, thanks!
