I am wondering if having the engine hosted on ovirt is actually a good
idea. It seems to me that it complicates things when doing some major
upgrades like with swapping domain server and such. Does that make sense?
Should I keep the engine separate on another hypervisor maybe?

Depends what you mean by "sync" and "swap".
If you can keep the same NFS endpoint, but swap-in your upgraded storage
under the hood then I think you can do as you propose. Stop all VMs, put
the storage domain in maintenance, make you changes and bring the domain
out of maintenance.
However, if you're moving to a different NFS server, or even different
path on the same server then I think the answer is no. In this scenario
you'd need to create a new domain and move each vdisk across.

I need to upgrade my main domain storage (NFS) which hosts 100s of VMs and
templates including the hosted engine. Can I put the data center in global
maintenance, do a quick sync and swap of the domain storage and bring it
back up without missing a beat?
