I'm digging through this now, as I need to move my oVirt 3.5 setup from
one storage array to another (both iSCSI), including the hosted engine.

Reading this:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1240466#c21

it sounds like that's not currently possible (at least with 3.5).  Is
that correct?  I was planning to follow this process:

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/hosted-engine-backup-and-restore/

which says "point to the new shared storage" - will that not work?
