Actually, dom0 can totally be virtual.  It might not make sense, but it would 
run happily under VMWare, or KVM, or something else that does "pretend 
hardware" virtualization.  (Theoretically even under Xen paravirt, if someone 
was crazy enough to make it work. :)

Bug #10625: Xen dom0 and domU hosts reported as physical without xenfs mounted

Status: Accepted
Priority: High

Category: library
Target version: 1.6.x
Keywords: virtual
Branch: 
Affected Facter version: 1.6.2


Facter 1.6.2 is reporting all my Rackspace virtuals as reals, which breaks all 
kinds of things. Rolling back to  1.6.1 clears it up.

    root@prod-fe-r02:/etc/monit/conf.d# facter | grep virtual
    is_virtual => false
    virtual => physical
    root@prod-fe-r02:/etc/monit/conf.d# gem list

    *** LOCAL GEMS ***

    facter (1.6.2)
    puppet (2.7.6)
    rake (0.8.7 ruby)
    root@prod-fe-r02:/etc/monit/conf.d# gem uninstall facter

    You have requested to uninstall the gem:
        facter-1.6.2
    puppet-2.7.6 depends on [facter (>= 1.5.1)]
