Thank you for the answer.

So, currently there is at least three copy of agent and broker logs on centos 7.2:
1. agent.log and broker.log files in /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/ directory
2. /var/log/messages file
3. journald database

Does errors additionally send to syslog according to agent-log.conf and broker-log.conf files in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/ directory?

It's a bit too much :) Do you plan to fix this duplication?

For example 2. and 3. can be quickly disabled by adding StandardOutput=null option to unit file

[Service]
...
StandardOutput=null

I think that it's an expected behavior: for 3.6.1 we had to rewrite the systemd startup script due to a slightly different behavior on centos 7.2.
Prior than that the agent was forking as a daemon while now it's running as a systemd service with type=simple so its output goes to systemd logging facilities and so also in /var/log/messages according to your system configuration.
