Thanks! Yes, at least now I know where that was specified... and since
there is nothing there for kvm, I guess you just leave it commented, BUT...

yours doesn't appear to be set?? Mine is set to "xenU".

So... maybe I've never even needed this? Or maybe I did way back when I
first installed this (probably 7 or 8 years ago), and it isn't needed
any longer? Would the need for it be based on the kernel version? OR the
underlying Xen Host version? Or something else?

More importantly - I guess I should comment it out right before the
migration? Or is this something I can do after? IF I don't, how would I
handle it?

Wish I had more time to learn about how all of this worked...

Anyway, thanks again for at least filling in one blank...
