Attempt to create any HVM via virt-manager aborts with message:-
 
 Unable to complete install '<class 'libvirt.libvirtError'> Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByName
 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1501, in do_install
     dom = guest.start_install(False, meter = meter)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 541, in start_install
     return self._do_install(consolecb, meter, removeOld, wait)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 633, in _do_install
     self.domain = self.conn.createLinux(install_xml, 0)
   File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 974, in createLinux
     if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', conn=self)
 libvirtError: Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByName
