You need to disable viridian compatibility in your Xenserver. > Running `hostctl -t` returns "/dev/pvbus0: Hyper-V" > That's because Xenserver announces Hyper-V compatibility layer (called viridian) before Xen for whatever reason. You need to do "cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV pvbus1" and then use "hostctl -f /dev/pvbus1" with your commands (I assume -- never tried a Xenserver myself). > Any tips on getting hostctl to work? See above.
