I found your email in SPAM ... no idea how it happened.Well, I don't know how this happened for me , but the ovirt-ha-agent was not able to open the OVF for the HostedEngine - it was 0 bytes. So in my case I have manually defined the HostedEngine via an xml found in the vdsm logs and I also defined the ovirtmgmt network (found on the web).Once you power up the HostedEngine , the OVF get's updated a little bit slower than the timer set inside it. In my case - I needed at least 2-3 hours before the OVF got updated and I could power down and power up via the 'hosted-engine' tool.
