Any explanation how Python is able to destroy a VM like that? Honestly this does not sound like an issue to me which is caused by Python or the build of the guest agent I would start looking into the logs for the Host.
Please check the logs in /var/log/libvirt/qemu for the corresponding VM log (Win7-01) Also check your logs if you find any hints in /var/log/vdsm/libvirtd.log and /var/log/vdsm/vdsm.log

Honestly this does not sound like an issue to me which is caused by Python or the build of the guest agent I would start looking into the logs for the Host. Shot in the dark, but I would also check the memory usage on the host and how over provisioned you are. If the host started paging significantly it could become unresponsive.
