There is no simple and reliable way to undo 'hosted-engine --deploy'.
It's not designed for that. 'ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup' is only a
partial solution, and if it does not work for you, an OS reinstall
should usually be quick and easy (especially if you have PXE setup,
etc.).

This is unlike 'engine-setup'. engine-setup is used also for upgrades,
so it's very important that it cleanly rolls back to a previous clean
state if it runs into a problem. In that regard, 'engine-cleanup' is
not that important as well, although we do fix bugs in it.

'hosted-engine --deploy' should always be ran on a clean and new
system anyway, so if it runs into a problem, it should not be a loss
to reinstall the OS.

Exactly. It's a tradeoff. It's simply not worth it.

Sorry for the time you wasted. Please reinstall :-).

That said, if you run into concrete bugs that can reliably be
reproduced, including in ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup, please report
them! Thanks.

Good luck and best regards,
