I did none additional tests and the new CentOS 6.4 host failed start or
migrate any vm. It always boils down to:

In webadmin the start and migrate operations fail with 'truesize'.
I could find BZ#876958 which has the very same error. So I tried to
apply patch http://gerrit.ovirt.org/9317. I had to apply it manually
(guess patch would need a rebase for 3.1), but it works.
I now can start new virtual machines successfully on a CentOS 6.4 /
oVirt 3.1 host. Migration of vm from CentOS 6.3 hosts work, but not the
other way around. Migration from 6.4 to 6.3 fails:

But I guess this is fine and migration from higher host version to a
lower version is probably not supported, right?
