When you say "anymore", it sounds like you were previously using 4.2 without issues, is that correct, or is this a fresh upgrade. If it's fresh, note that 4.2 requires a new system vm image (this will be a part of the upgrade instructions when it's released).
As Wido mentions, patch disk is no longer necessary. I don't see anything alarming in the libvirt/qemu logs provided, the management server simply states that the vm failed to start. The agent log will tell you why.
