&gt;Is there a way to get QEMUs q35 machine in Ovirt?
&gt;I've just upgraded my ovirt 3.4.4 install that has a couple of EL6.5 hosts.
&gt;If I create a cluster with EL7 or F20 hosts will I get the option to use the q35 machine?
&gt;If so, how can I select this?
&gt;
&gt;Thanks.

After doing some more searching I came across these two pages:
<a moz-do-not-send="true" style="" class="" href="http://www.ovirt.org/Cluster_emulation_modes">http://www.ovirt.org/Cluster_emulation_modes</a>
</pre>
        <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="" class=""
          href="http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cluster_parameters_override">http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cluster_parameters_override</a><br>
        <br>
        It sounds like this may allow me to achieve what I've described
        above.<br>
        From what I can tell the 'emulated machine type' is tied to the
        ovirt cluster level - ie: 3.5.<br>
        <br>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    <br>
    you can switch q35 with pc-1.0 in ClusterEmulatedMachines config
    value for version 3.5<br>
    <br>
      engine-config -s ClusterEmulatedMachines="q35,rhel6.5.0"<br>
    <br>
    then create a new cluster and add that host to it. once the host is
    up this emulation mode should be set.<br>
    <br>
    in 3.6 you'd be able to choose an emulation mode per VM. <br>
