While proper integration with NetworkManager is a remote target,
NetworkManager could be up and running on an el7 oVirt host - as long as
it does not touch interfaces configured by Vdsm. This is at least my
experience.

Can you tell what disabled NetworkManager and where? Does anything bad
happens when you start NetworkManager on that host?
