Thanks to all of us !
We read the Sandro's email annoucement:
http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2016-June/040172.html
And applied to the HV the update process pointed in:
http://www.ovirt.org/release/3.6.7/
(we only updated vdsm)
Now our HV is working fine and we are able again to do pci passthrough with it.
As a result, the virtual machine hosted on it now sees tape.
Thanks again for your fast and precisous help !

The ovirt release 3.6.7 rc2, see Sandro’s announcement email sent to this list
last Thursday. Once you reconfigure repos as explained there you will see the
new fixed vdsm:) It’s a release candidate repo
Hope it works,
