dhcp should work too. The problem is with NetworkManager.
You'll need to have static IPs though for the engine to be able to
contact the hosts (as well as the hosts themselves, for hosted-engine HA
at least), or you'll have problems if they for some reason get a different
IP address from your dhcp server.

Please post relevant logs:
hosts - /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine*/*, /var/log/vdsm/*
engine - /var/log/ovirt-engine/*

Thanks and best regards,
