Afaik this should be enough. Just remember that e.g. ssh login will still be slow if the DNS server isn't reachable as you have to wait until it reaches a timeout. My oVirt setup doesn't have any DNS entry - just the hosts and engine in /etc/hosts. But I don't use DNS names at all only IP addresses...
