Maybe I choose the "Use Host" option wrongly? I thought this is the way to tie the storage of "Host-01" to GlusterFS by selecting "Host-01" on the "Use Host" option. And I should do the same thing for "Host-02", which adding new storage domain with choosing "Host-02" on the "Use Host" option.
So do others. Host-03, Host-04 ...

While creating storage domain, the host provided in "Use host" is the one used to initially setup the connection to the storage. In case of gluster storage domain, if like you said, you want to separate storage servers from hypervisor hosts - you would set up the gluster volume using bricks on Host-04, Host-05, Host-06. And in oVirt create a cluster with your hypervisor hosts - Host-01, Host-02 and Host-03. To create a data storage domain - use any of the hosts (01-03) and provide path to gluster volume as host-04:/<volname>

In case of hyperconverged setup, the gluster volume can be setup on Host-01, Host-02, Host-03 itself. Check http://blogs-ramesh.blogspot.in/2016/01/ovirt-and-gluster-hyperconvergence.html

    Hyperconverged deployment with oVirt and Gluster has been tested
    and is currently offered as a preview feature with guidance on
    do's/don'ts & recommended gluster volume settings. We're working
    on enhancing this further to make it easier to setup, integrate
    better in the oVirt UI in 4.1


    So I try to separate vm service and storage. I added new storage
    domain( Domain Type "Data", Storage Type "GlusterFS", Use Host
    "host-01". But then I can't add another new storage domain(
    Domain Type "Data", Storage Type "GlusterFS", Use Host
    "host-02"). The input field "path" is unwritable (gray) on the
    Popup New Domain Window.

    My question is, should we add a new storage domain for each
    ovirt-node?

    No, you dont need to.
    This seems like a bug in the Create storage domain UI. Does
    refreshing your browser fix the greyed-out input field? Any errors
    seen in engine logs?

        Make sure that you use replica 3 gluster volumes for storing
        VM images. Are you planning to deploy as a hyperconverged setup?
        Either way, try and use the latest ovirt 3.6 and glusterfs
        3.7 (3.7.12 that addresses bugs related to sharding and
        o-direct is due to be released soon)
