Yes

* Export Domain held your VM disks **and**  the Client CONFIGURATION.
     - It’s a save place, you can have more then one export device,  like  a 
external USB 3.0 disk. Not simultaneously but successively.
    - Avoid saving snapshots and it’s nearly failsafe.

* Export to OVA should work similar, with free storage location of your own.
  - I didn't test it.


* A Data Domain hold you client disk data **only**.
  - It can be detached. So it’s inactive on hosts but still registered in the 
database.
  - In this case you have to transfer your database with configurations to the 
new setup.
  - Then you are able to import your data domain later.

* Backup Domain ????
  - send references please ...

Yes

Did you have enough networks ports for:
* ovirtmgmt 1G
* IPMI 1G

* Gluster Sync 10G
* VM Migration 10G

* iSCSI SAN 10G
* Display Network

VM’s only from export
- or -
Config and Disks from engine backup and data domains
