As this is not a VM, you won't have to worry about putting 1 host in maintenance.
I make backups lile this: engine-backup --mode=backup --scope=all --file=/root/engine-bkp-empty-ovirt1-ver4.3.7-rc4--2019-11-30 --log=/var/log/engine-backup.log I'm specifying the host that will be used for restore, which is needed when the engine is VM. In your bare-metal case - you just need to recover the OS/harfware and restore from backup.
