So two issues.  One is easy, one may be a bit more adventurous.

/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/esxi comes with a 'hypervisor.tmpl', meaning
we should probably symlink it to base.tmpl so the profile name can be the
same as what Vallard chose for ESXi4.

You may however notice you do not have that at all, because it's actually
only in the 2.7 alpha builds at the moment.  A 2.7 upgrade is currently
required.  If you wish to try something a bit more selective, you may be
able to pull esx.pm and that hypervisor.tmpl from 2.7 and dump them in a
2.6 series installation without issue.  There is a chance that Schema.pm
would be needed too, but I'm not explicitly aware of any Schema updates for
esx.pm per se...

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
