I am still confused. My ovirt shell cli is in "disconnected" mode like this:

The only commands I can use are connect, exit and help. How do I see my
node?  Or maybe the question is if the parameters I provided to the
kernel boot options have indeed enabled the node to register with the
engine. But again I have no way to know this. Is there a log on the node
side that might give me some clues?
well, to begin with, do you see the node in the engine via the webadmin gui?

if you PXE boot the node to register to the engine, it will register
    itself in the engine, so the ovirt-shell can "see it" and approve it.
note you can also just add the ovirt-node directly from the engine (via
    the gui/cli/api/sdk without the node registering (you would need to
    know
    set in the node the root password (for ssh) or the engine ssh key for
    this to be able to add the node without registering it first.
    if you register it, it will also get the engine ssh key as part of
    registration)
