this worked for me after default install that, as you already wrote,
doesn't allow to have anything but the ovirtmgmt.
Of course it needs downtime... suboptimal...
see this thread of mine:
http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-October/016891.html

Using ovirtmgmt I had problems with cluster due to ovirtmgmt saturated
if I had heavy I/O on VMs (so network bandwith from gluster point of
view)... with hosts going into non operational status.
No problem after changing network.
