[ovirt-users] Hosted-engine --deploy FQDN questions

Folks,

I'm an OVirt newbie having troubles setting up my first Hosted Engine and am stumbling. In this case I think it may be because of the following two set-up questions.

          Enter the name which will be used to identify this host inside the Administrator Portal [hosted_engine_1]:
          Please provide the FQDN for the engine you would like to use.
          This needs to match the FQDN that you will use for the engine installation within the VM.
          Note: This will be the FQDN of the VM you are now going to create,
          it should not point to the base host or to any other existing machine.
          Engine FQDN:  []: 

My read of this is that the first question is asking for the name of the host, while the second question is asking for the name (FQDN) of the guest vm which will be the hosted-engine. Is this correct?

I'm also presuming that a) the first question should be the hostname of the host, and b) that both the host and guest hostnames should resolve to IP addresses.

Thanks
Mark
