I may have made matters worse. So I changed to 4.3 compatible cluster then
4.3 compatible data center. All VMs were marked as requiring a reboot. I
restarted a couple of them and none of them will start up, they are saying
"bad volume specification". The ones running that I did not yet restart
are still running ok. I need to figure out why the VMs aren't restarting.
Here is an example from vdsm.log

I think I just figured out what I was doing wrong. On edit cluster
screen
I was changing both the CPU type and cluster level 4.3. I tried it again
by switching to the new CPU type first (leaving cluster on 4.2) then
saving, then going back in and switching compat level to 4.3. It appears
that you need to do this in two steps for it to work.
