[Users] Problem adding an RHEL node/host

Hi,

I'm trying to follow the Quick Start guide, and I can't seem to add a 
host. I am running oVirt 3.3 on F19 for the engine. The node is RHEL 
6.4, subscribed to RH channels and fully updated:

# yum repolist
Loaded plugins: product-id, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, security,
               : subscription-manager
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
repo id               repo name                                           status
epel                  Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - x86_64       9,972
glusterfs-epel        GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of sca     11
glusterfs-noarch-epel GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of sca      2
ovirt-stable          Stable builds of the oVirt project                     212
rhel-x86_64-server-6  Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6 for 64-bit x8 11,114
repolist: 21,311


The install fails, and when I look at the host-deploy log it appears to 
be due to a failure for Yum to find a dependency.
At Matt Curry's suggestion, I added the 'epel' repository (not mentioned 
in QS Guide), which I think resolved some dependencies, but I still fail 
as follows:

2013-11-08 13:48:49 ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:146 Failed to execute stage 'Package installation': [u'vdsm-4.12.1-4.el6.x86_64 requires sanlock-python', u'vdsm-4.12.1-4.el6.x86_64 requires libvirt-lock-sanlock', u'vdsm-4.12.1-4.el6.x86_64 requires sanlock >= 2.3-4']


As far as I can tell by googling around, sanlock belongs to the ovirt 
project. So where should it be coming from?
Is something wrong with ovirt-stable? I am using:

[ovirt-stable]
name=Stable builds of the oVirt project
baseurl=http://ovirt.org/releases/stable/rpm/EL/$releasever/
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=1
gpgcheck=0


I did a "yum clean; yum mkcache" just prior to initiating the Host Add 
from the web interface. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
     Bob
