Hello,
following this reference guide:

after having run with success the gdeploy based gluster setup, there is 

Setting up Hosted Engine
Use the Ansible based installation flow of Hosted Engine to set up oVirt within a virtual machine. The storage details should be provided as type: glusterfs and connection path as: <hostname>:/engine (Replace hostname with address of host on which installation is carried out)

What does exactly mean "Use the Ansible based instalation" ? Does it mean using cockpit web ui? In this casae I suppose I have to choose:

It's simply the new node zero deployment flow which is now the default one from cockpit and also from CLI. 

Thanks for the answer, Simone, but I have not understood.
I used ovirt-node-ng-installer-ovirt-4.2-2018082006.iso to install the OS host node. 
Does this resemble what you call "new node zero deployment flow"?
When connecting to cockpit and selecting hosted engine, I get this screen:

what to choose and if any particular setup needs?
As I wrote, the command "gdeploy -c gdeploy.conf" completed without errors on the host and now I have the 3 (small, only to test the workflow for now) gluster volumes running

Now you can simply continue with "Hosted Engine" button in cockpit.
You could also skip the manual execution of gdeploy from CLI and do everything from cockpit with the "Hyperconverged" button but now you already did it.
