I can help you with exactly this problem... but there are currently some
better alternatives. For XenAPI you have to go Xen XML, I'm probably the
only one with an example of this online.

Next to this importing the XenAPI python code is required to for 'useful'
creates. For new users I would advise to go with libvirt's python
bindings. It has more documentation to set such thing up.
