I'm sure libxl (the new Xen toolstack) uses "phy" and not "drbd" as
type. Probably the old xend toolstack was setting type to "drbd", and
that's why the script checked for drbd.
IMHO, setting the type to phy is the right thing to do, since drbd ends
up presenting a block device which is handled by blkback.

Not in Xen OSS Test suite [0], although I have no idea if other products
based on Xen perform any kind of tests with drbd.
