File vdsm/virt/vm.py:

Line 722:         m = XMLElement('clock', offset='variable',
Line 723:                        adjustment=str(self.conf.get('timeOffset', 0)))
Line 724:         rtc = m.appendChildWithArgs('timer', name='rtc', 
tickpolicy='catchup')
Line 725:         if utils.tobool(self.conf.get('hypervEnable', 'false')):
Line 726:             rtc.setAttrs(track='guest')
> track = guest? should be name= hypervclock
The libvirt docs/support is quite murky here.

hypervclock is supported u/s starting from 1.2.2, and AFAIK RHEL 6.x is left 
out, as well as F19 and F20 without virt-preview. (and I'm not that sure anput 
RHEL7, need to check). Support in VDSM is added in 
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/29234/

Then bz1107835 comes into play. We have a reported way to improve stability 
which is safe to add, plays nice on RHEL 6 and fits nicely on our hyperv 
support, so I added in this patch.

The open question is if name=hypervclock behaves the same way of name=rtc 
track=guest. :(
