Hi Mike, I assume you are building a lab since using VMs to install a Virtualization Solution will not offer the minimum performance desired for the solution. As a lab, I recommend you to use two VMs, one for the Engine installing it as a stand-alone Engine and the second to act as an hypervisor. Remember to configure nested virtualization for this VM on VMware. When you get more familiar with oVirt, you can move to physical servers where installing the Self-Hosted-Engine will be easier.
