Brian, can you please attach VDSM and engine logs (or SOS report, if you prefer). Thanks!

This looks like a duplicate of bug 903248 to me. Can you upgrade libvirt version and retry?
It seems that is13 on RHEL 6.5 host has similar issue from rhel repo I've got libvirt-0.10.2-23.el6.x86_64 installed and I could not start VM following error message VM F19 is down.
