this guest. Setting the flag will cause the guest to boot from
the utility and installation image, which will use the value in
the toolaction field to determine what operation is being

Description: This entry is used by a Unisys support script installed on the
guest, and triggered by a udev event. The support script is
responsible for enabling and disabling SR-IOV devices when the
PF device is being recovered in another guest.
Some SR-IOV devices have problems when the PF is reset without
first disabling all VFs attached to that PF. s-Par handles this
situation by sending a message to guests using these VFs, and
the script will disable the device. When the PF is recovered,
another message is sent to the guests to re-enable the VFs.
The parahotplug/deviceenabled interface is used to acknowledge
the recovery message.
