Just an addition: your first host will be automatically added to your
engine so you don't have to do anything special on that.
hosted-engine on the other side, is using a dedicated storage domain for
the engine VM and you cannot use it for other VMs so you still need to add
a second storage domain for regular VMs.
Take care that loopback mounting NFS could lead to deadlocks:

On a single host with the storage on the same host iSCSI seams more
reliable.
Take in mind also that in 3.6.0 there is a bug so that you don't actually
see your engine vm inside admin portal and also you cannot import it. To be
fixed in 3.6.1. See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1269768
Also, if you plan to have a single host and you use NFS for storage domains
on your single host, you have to manually change
/usr/lib/systemd/system/ovirt-ha-broker.service
so that in the [Unit] section it looks like:
[Unit]
Description=oVirt Hosted Engine High Availability Communications Broker
After=nfs-server.service
otherwise ovirt-ha-broker will fail to start and you have to manually start
it after boot and nfs service has come up.
