Itamar, actually using REST is pretty easy and quick. It just that I explained it in details so it looks like the bible.
I really hope using the CLI would be even simpler?

In 3.3 it suppose to work.
Here is how it's done (more detailed):
1) Install Rest-Clien plugin: https://addons.mozilla.org/he/firefox/addon/restclient/
wouldn't using the cli be simpler?
2) Access your setup using the plugin: Use GET method in order to get the storage connections. Attaching screenshot(29) so you can see how it should look like.
3) After you get into the storage connection list, You need to find the relevant connection. In order to know which connection to delete, look for the connection path you need to delete. It's specified under the connection. For example:
storage_connection href= "/api/storageconnections/c1b8fe9f-e85b-4146-9a29-227ae845eb6c" id="c1b8fe9f-e85b-4146-9a29-227ae845eb6c"> <address>lion.qa.lab.tlv.redhat.com</address> <type>nfs</type> <path>/export/elad/elad16</path> </storage_connection>
The export path from the nfs server is: lion.qa.lab.tlv.redhat.com , /export/elad/elad16
Now that you know which connection to remove, use DELETE method and pass the connection you want to remove. It's done by copying the UUID of the connection from the Response box to the URL box. It should look like this:
https://elad-rhevm3.qa.lab.tlv.redhat.com:443/api/storageconnections/d2d1326...
Also, you'll have to specify the host which will perform the removal. It's done like this: Under the 'Request' box, add:
<host> <name>host_name</name> </host>
Last thing you'll have to do is to add a header:
In the top of the screen you have 'Headers' option. Pick 'Custom Header' and specify:
name: Content-Type value: application/xml
Press SEND.
That should work

Hi,
actually I think your description is far to shorthanded for everyone except for people who already know how to delete a storage connection and how to do it via REST.
However there is a quite accurate wiki site with a more detailed explanation: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Manage_Storage_Connections#Delete_connection_....
But it didn't work when I tested it the last time in 3.1.x
But it should work in 3.3.2.

As Itamar said, there is a nicer way to do it.
In order to delete a connection, you can do it also via REST-API. You'll need a plugin for your browser (I'm using Rest client for Firefox).
Go to storageconnection under api using 'GET':
https://hostname:443/api/storageconnections
Under that, you'll see your old ISO domain connection (by UUID), use DELETE, in order to remove it.
Just remember, you'll be able to remove a connection only if it's not used by any domain.
Hope it helped.
