So this error seems to only be possible due to: 

  - a version mismatch between the user-space tools and the version
    of xen actually running, or 
 
  - a failure to access the privcmd interface in dom0 

In the former case, you should see something in /var/log/xend-debug.log 
(like "Dom0 operation failed - need to rebuild the user-space tool set?") 

In the latter case, it would probably mean you were running xend as non-root. 

Do either of these seem plausible? 

cheers,

S.
