It's probably due to this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121057

Re-running hosted-engine --deploy on the first host it's enough to generate a new answer file witch looks not complete if you interrupt the setup process.
We already had a patch for it, it will be released in the next days with oVirt 3.5.1

Unfortunately, till that patch, we didn't store previous version of answer file so you have to manually edit it matching your configuration.
I can help you off the list.
