I "forked" this email into a new subject ("Manually
deploying a
hyperconverged setup with an existing gluster bricks")But
nevertheless, no idea if its intended or not, but it seems that
adding a host via "host->computer->create" doesn't create the
necessary /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf configuration
on the new hosts, preventing ovirt-ha-* services from starting.
So , set the host into maintenance and
then select installation -> reinstall -> Hosted Engine -> Deploy
