Previously, when using a remote database, the ovirt-engine-dwh-setup configured the host and engine databases on the same machine, and it was not possible to specify a different database host. In Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.4, the DWH setup utility was replaced with a plug-in to use the common engine-setup utility and made it possible to input a database host as needed when setting up DWH with a remote database. This feature was a Tech Preview feature in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.4, and now a supported feature in 3.5.
Description of problem:
remote DB server cannot be define, it is inherited from remote engine DB server. I want to define different DB server :)
