Yes.
There was a bug in tools which ignored the CABaseDirectory option.
Please execute the following within engine database:

update vdc_options set option_value = '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/engine.p12' where option_name = 'keystoreUrl';
update vdc_options set option_value = '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/engine.cer' where option_name = 'CertificateFileName';
update vdc_options set option_value = '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/.truststore' where option_name = 'TruststoreUrl';
