To move from a single host to multiple host, you can add additional hosts
to your cluster via Ovirt. Distribute volume can be changed to a replica 3
volume - but ensure there's no ongoing I/O. The easier process is to add
new replica 3 volumes and move your VM disks to it - for the VMs that
require HA.

Sure, contributions are welcome though - Leo, if you feel like pitching in
