Which version of ovirt are you using? Hopefully ovirt-3.3.0.1.
For how long is the VM stuck in its "wait for launch" state?
What does `virsh -r list` has to say while startup stalls?
Would you provide more content of your vdsm.log and possibly
libvirtd.log so we can understand what blocks the VM start-up? Please
use attachement of pastebin, as your mail agents wreaks havoc to the log
lines.
