No, we have an open bug on that:

You can try to manually import it in the mean time.

But hosted-engine storage domain can just contain the engine VM so you
still need to add a regular storage domain for other VMs.

It was used by hosted-engine-setup as a fake storage pool to bootstrap the
hosted-engine storage domain.
It shouldn't be there at the end.
Could you please attach hosted-engine-setup logs to let me check why it's
still there?

You have to setup your first regular data domain for other VMs: you can add
another NFS one.

Put the host in global maintenance (otherwise the engine VM will be
restarted)
Shutdown the engine VM
Shutdown the host
