oVirt 3.5.1 RC1 will be published today so, if everything runs as expected, oVirt 3.5.1 will be out in a few days. oVirt 3.5.1 should solve the issue you reported.
Ok I will wait 3.5.1 and try again.
Great, please help us reporting any other issue or strange thing.
Keep present that hosted-engine also installs and configures ovirt-hosted-engine-ha daemon to ensure HA capabilities restarting the engine VM if the host witch runs the VM goes down. In the setup you are proposing you are loosing that capability.
I supposed the ha capability was offered by ovirt cluster. I need to investigate.
HA capability is provided for other VMs by oVirt engine. But who provide it if the engine itself is on a VM on the host that it's managing? HA for the Engine VM needs to be managed by the hosts and not the Engine itself: so we have ovirt-hosted-engine-ha that ensure HA for the engine VM, the engine cloud than provide HA for other VMs.
