Bug Description
When trying to spin up XenServer VMs using machine style images (kernel outside of the image), we're seeing sporadic failures.
The Instance goes to active (which is probably wrong) but the compute node generates this traceback: http://
It's possible there is a race here and we could fix this by polling or introducing a carefully placed `sleep 2`
Plan to Fix:
1. The first step is to figure out why the failed VMs are showing up as 'active' instead of 'failed'
2. Once that's fix, planning to write a test harness that spins up 10 instances and see how many fail.
