Are both on the same LAN? If so, you can just add the other as an additional
host, migrate the VM to it, then remove the first from the engine (after moving
it to maintenance). IIRC HA will forget about it after a week or so (in the
output of 'hosted-engine --vm-status'). In principle you can remove it manually
using 'hosted-engine --clean-metadata --host-id=1'. See also:

If on different LANs, you can try using backup/restore:
