This is an error while trying to connect to the engine, not to reports.

In 3.5, engine and reports have each its own jboss instance listening on its
own local ports. 8702 is the engine's, 8712 is reports'.

this one ^^

are a bit weird for me. I'd expect the same hostname in both.

Normally, you should input, when asked for the host's fqdn, a hostname,
and not an ip address, and this name should point to a public ip address,
not 127.0.0.1.

Since this is an upgrade, iirc you were not even asked about this. Were you?

What do you have in /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/10-setup-protocols.conf ?
If not an ip address but a hostname, does this name resolve to an external
address? If not, I think you can fix this simply by changing it to point to
an external address - edit /etc/hosts or your dns server. If you have there
127.0.0.1, not sure where 'myserver.domain' came from.
