Hi,

I tried to deploy ovirt hosted engine 3.5.2 on a Centos7.1

I messed up things with datacenter naming, I used something else than Default, and the result was that, after the DB welcome message between the engine and the hypervisor, there was in error (I didn't catch it I was using screen command over ssh without log :-( ),

You should be able to find it in the log, in /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.

and the last steps were not done, so I ended up an engine up but without the hypervisor being registred.

Is there a way to force the registration again, or will I have to deploy from the beginning and reinstall the VM engine?

This depends on your exact status, including whether there is anything in the engine db and in the hosted-engine metadata file. What's the output of 'hosted-engine --vm-status' on the host? You can try to just run again hosted-engine --deploy, replying 'no' to 'is this an additional host deploy?'. If the engine db is "dirty", you can run engine-cleanup/engine-setup again inside the engine vm, prior to trying deploy again. There is currently no simple way to clean up the metadata file, see [1] for that. [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1116469 Best, -- Didi
