Thanks all who have responded so far.
Advice so far seems to be: * Use 'screen' when deploying. Easy * Don't use/disable Network-Manager. Easy * Preconfigure the ovirtmgmt bridge. I've got questions...
The server has a public /32 as the primary IP, and a public /29 which will be used for the VMs.
Besides creating the ovirtmgmt bridge is there anything specific for how I should configure it?
My recommendation is that you just set up non-NM-controlled static network using your public /32. Then the hosted-engine --deploy process should take that config and apply it to ovirtmgmt bridge. At least, that's what happened for me when I did it. I don't think you need to set up the ovirtmgmt bridge manually. As for the /29 -- don't worry about it now, that would be a routing issue you can apply later. Is it the same network as the /32? Or is it a different network?
Thanks Mark

I have never setup such a server but if you create the ovirtmgmt bridge first then the deploy will leave it alone and you won't lose network connectivity.
I've set up almost the described combination (I do run the vm-engine on a separate laptop), and found that running the commandline stuff in a screen helps a lot, the setup commands can then complete instead of being interrupted as your (ssh-)session is killed.
I also enountered the same issue of network connection loss as the ovirtmgmt-interface took over my primary connection, but I was able to continue as I had several network devices on my hardware which I had already configured, and was able to access the server through them.
If you only have one network interface, then I would recommend running the commands in a screen, and in the case of losing the connection, reconnect to the screen through the KVM.
