Hi Fabio:

In XenServer and XCP 0.1.0 I have this processes working fine using Python
XAPI. Homologating XCP 0.1.1 to map the inconsistencies, this issue occurred
and, as I planning to use many pools managed by my application, I can't use
the approach for reset all pool to have this working. I think this is a bug
because I haven't this behavior in oldest releases.

Cheers,
