It's just an internal label. I think we can just remove that question
always using the default value and nothing will change.

Postponing to 3.6.1 not being identified as a blocker.

You can try to add the first additional storage domain for other VMs.
The datacenter should came up and at that point you try importing the
hosted-engine storage domain.
You cannot add other VMs to that storage domain neither you'll can when the
auto-import will work.
