I've just run up a clean instance of CloudStack 4.11.2 against 2
XenServer 7.1 CU2 Hosts (running in VMs).  I was unable to get the VMs
to boot, with errors about HVM required.  I spotted the log message
"no guest OS type, start it as HVM guest", which indicates that Xen is
being told to use the "Other Install media" template.

I had a look through the database and found guest_os_hypervisor which
seems to be used to map CloudStack OS types onto XenServer template
names - the problem seems to be that there was no entry for
hypervisor_version = 7.1.2 - these hosts report their version as
7.1.2.

I'm guessing I cannot be the first person to run into this, as this is
an LTS release of CloudStack - if you've seen it previously, how have
you handled this?  I was able to proceed by adding a row into this
table, but it doesn't strike me that this is something normal users
would do.

Regards,

Richard
