Looks like you invented your own hyperconverge solution.

The NFS server on the node will always be accessible on the node, but if it
is
not accessible from other hosts, the entire DC may go down.

Also you probably don't have any redundancy, so failure of single node cause
downtime and data loss.

Did you consider hyperconverge Gluster based setup?

The huge problem is slow export to OVA or there is another problem?

I don't know the ova export code, but I'm sure it does not save in the
images
directory. It probably creates temporary volume for preparing and storing
the
exported ova file.

Arik, how do you suggest to debug slow export to OVA?

OVF should be stored in OVF_STORE disks. Maybe you see files
created by an old version?

What do yo mean by "get this VMs back"?

If you mean importing all vms and disks on storage to a new engine,
yest, it should work. This is the base for oVirt DR support.

Do you mean hosted engine stored on NFS storage domain served by
one of the nodes?

Can you give more details on this problem?

Please also specify oVirt version you use.
