Following up. Thanks to Assaf Muller for the tip: running a yum update on a host works around the "The Hosts emulated machines are <UNKNOWN> and the cluster is [rhel6.4.0, pc-1.0]}". I guess it's just best to do that on all my new hosts from now on. Not sure if it's officially recommended or documented to do that.

Follow BZ1008243 if you're interested in the root cause.
