Place these parameters on your kernel command-line (in your kickstart file/or whatever 
you're using to provision your guests)
----
console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200
-----

Then from your host, try this:
------------------------------------
#start your guest
virsh start f15test
------------------------------------
#connect to guest serial console
virsh console f15test
------------------------------------

Note: A bootloader parameter in kickstart file looks like below.
----
bootloader --location=mbr --append="crashkernel=auto console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200"
----

hope that helps,
