Hello all,
Thanks for the tip Dan. I thought I would write up what I did for future people searching this list.
I added the QEMU command line hook from github oVirt/vdsm ( https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/tree/master/vdsm_hooks/qemucmdline) to /usr/libexec/vdsm/hooks/before_vm_start/ on my hosts.
Then I added the Custom Arguments to the config on my machine with the engine running engine-config -g UserDefinedVMProperties # print current args and add them to the next line engine-config -s UserDefinedVMProperties='qemu_cmdline=^.*$' --cver=4.2
Then I was able to add the JSON list of args to the machines in the oVirt UI.
Thanks for your help, Harry
Glad it worked for you
