Hi David, When using pre xenserver 7, CloudStack deploy Windows 2016 vm as "Other (64 bit)". I've made some test with XenServer 7.1 and Windows 2016 are default HVM when using the new xenserver template for Windows 2016. My understanding is that if you run a VM in XenServer as HVM and you have xentools installed and up-to-date, your VM run in PVHVM mode which seems to be the best of both world.
The coming release of ACS (4.10) should have updated ostype so windows 2016 wouid use Windows 2016 template in xenserver 7+ instead of "Other (64 bit)".
