The easiest is probably just to disable viridian :)
Disabling viridian worked, thanks! For anyone else interested in doing this, run the following command on your XenServer host: xe vm-param-set uuid=<VM_UUID> platform:viridian=false After that, you can add these commands to /etc/rc.local: ostype=$(sysctl -n kern.ostype) osrelease=$(sysctl -n kern.osrelease) # PV driver version hostctl attr/PVAddons/MajorVersion 6 hostctl attr/PVAddons/MinorVersion 2 hostctl attr/PVAddons/MicroVersion 0 hostctl attr/PVAddons/BuildVersion 76888 hostctl attr/PVAddons/Installed 1 # OS version hostctl data/os_name "$ostype $osrelease" hostctl data/os_uname $osrelease hostctl data/os_distro $ostype # Update XenStore hostctl data/updated 1 -Max
