After renaming my gid 36 on my engine to kvm instead of vdsm, then
running a "chown -R 36:36 /iso-domain" on the folder, then setting the
ISO domain into maintenance and then activating it again, it then
mounted with the correct group ownership(kvm instead of nobody as seen
from the host) and I can now see my images!

I'm not sure where this vdsm group(gid 36) came from on my engine? Any
ideas, has this ever changed through different versions of
ovirt-engine?

Thank you very much for all of your assistance, it is greatly appreciated!
