[Users] hosted engine setup (NFS)

Hi,

I installed hosted engine and faced an issue with NFS during installation.

First of all, I'm using GlusterFS on my storage and ovirt engine doesn't 
support GlusterFS yet, only NFS.

But for NFS I can't use mountprotpo=tcp as hosted-engine --setup doesn't 
ask for NFS options.

So I manually edited the following file:
/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/plugins/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/storage/storage.py

and changed opts.append('vers=3'):

         if domain_type == 'nfs3':
             fstype = 'nfs'
             opts.append('vers=3,mountproto=tcp')

My question is now: is it possible to ask for NFS options during setup 
or do you think this can lead into problems? NFS via TCP worked fine for 
me for one week until I rebooted the host today (did reboot tests last 
weeks, too which was fine) and can't start hosted engine anymore (see 
other mail thread), but I think the other issue is not NFS mountproto 
related.
