Nothing obvious. I checked /var/log/messages, /var/log/libvirt/qemu, 
/var/log/libvirt/lxc & /var/log/qemu-ga. The /var/log/libvirt/lxc & 
/var/log/qemu-ga were empty. The /var/log/libvirt/qemu directory had a 
log file of interest Outgoing-CentOS-7-VM.log but nothing in it that 
tells me anything obvious.

I reboot the host while the guests were running. Is it possible the root 
file system was corrupted during the host reboot? I am thinking of 
putting the CentOS iso out and then booting the VM into it just to poke 
around the file system. Otherwise my other option is to just clone a 
twin VM on another server and then just change the networking 
IPs/hostname. Anybody have any other ideas as to how to debug this problem?
