Which type of storage domain have you created - NFS or GlusterFS?
With NFS, this could be a problem, as the nfs server running on ovirt1
can become single point of failure. To work around this, you will need
to set up HA with CTDB or pacemaker/corosync depending on version of NFS
you're using.
If you're using glusterfs, did the hypervisor node go down as well when
ovirt1 went down? Only during mounting of the storage domain (either on
activate of hypervisor host/ reboot of host) is the server provided in
path required to access volume (ovirt1). You can provide
backup-volfile-servers=ovirt2-ks:ovirt3-ks in Mount options while
creating the storage domain.
Please also provide output of gluster volume info. (I'm assuming the
bricks on the remaining servers were online)
