That vdsclient reference is exactly what I was looking for. I will have to use that until I can figure out what Im going to do about getting the hard drive with the engine data into a new server.

No back up, just the hard drive. The data is fine its the server board that is fried. I will eventually get a replacement server that I can use. So this brings me back to my original question below:
How do I, or can I use vdsm to interact with the VMs that are still present on those hosts without the engine?
Hi Maurice, What's the oVirt environment that you were running? 3.3, 3.4, 3.5? When you say interact, is it about to start the VM that are you asking? Could you please clarify? Have you tried the Maor's suggestion? For now, I would say to start with: http://wiki.ovirt.org/VdsClient Thanks Douglas

Yes the db and engine are offline
do you have a backup of the db to restore the engine?

Just to make sure, this means that when it comes to file system , etc.. you also have your storage resources available, right?
You lost the engine with the db, am I correct ?
I'm CCing someone that might have the exact answer for that.

I just recently had the hardware that acts as the engine crash. I have a blinking amber light on the server. I have servers on the remaining hosts. How do I, or can I use vdsm to interact with the VMs that are still present on those hosts without the engine?
