For general information, see:

This check was added for the following bug, in 4.2.2 (so rather new -
it makes sense that you did mange to use one in the past):

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1549630

So it seems to prevent local storage domains on the root filesystem.
So you can/should probably try moving your storage domain to a
separate filesystem.

There is lots of material on ovirt.org, including many pages and many
many posts to the mailing lists.

I am not aware of any book-style "advanced documentation".

For this particular example, to find above bug, I did this:

Found the place in the source code that includes this scriptlet:

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-node-ng/blob/master/packaging/ovirt-node-ng.spec.in#L160

Search the git log for this file. You can do this in github ("History"
button), but I find it much more comfortable to use 'git log -u' and
search inside. This finds:

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-node-ng/commit/a46150de468fac72224762e67e4f7fddc2151783#diff-87ef1c528b1eda8356fb2204d7844cef

And this links to the bug.
