Thank you guys !
Wow... this complicates the things, since reinstalling the hosts with
centos instead of oVirt node distribution would give me a bit of headache.
The dell hosts are already running in production.
I think it would be really nice if standard node would support installing
management software for well known brands like dell, hp, lenovo,
supermicro, etc... I am sure we cannot track every server brand in the
world, but in realitty there are just a couple of them most spreaded across
ovirt node installations.
I will try to see what I can do, although I am a bit afraid to not break
the os somehow...

Agree with Chris here, regular CentOS 7 hosts may be easier to manage
in
this case. Not much persists when updating oVirt node, some select
folders/files persist on updates such as /etc and /root for example but I'm
not sure how custom packages/rpms are handled. I believe there may be ways
you can have packages persist but I'm not familiar with the process. I
know the idea of package persistence was brought up before but I'm not sure
if/when/how it was implemented.
