Hi Stefano,
I'd say, that agent is not able to parse the metadata from the previous 
version, so as a workaround before I fix it you can try to zero out the 
metadata file (backup the original just in case..)

1. stop agent and broker on all hosts
2. truncate the file

this should do the trick:

$ service ovirt-ha-agent stop; service ovirt-ha-broker stop;
$ truncate --size 0 
/rhev/data-center/mnt/ov0nfs:_engine/e4e8282e-6bde-4332-ad68-313287b4fc65/ha_agent/hosted-engine.metadata 

$ truncate --size 1M 
/rhev/data-center/mnt/ov0nfs:_engine/e4e8282e-6bde-4332-ad68-313287b4fc65/ha_agent/hosted-engine.metadata
$ service ovirt-ha-broker start; service ovirt-ha-agent start
