Not sure what you mean by server-side Vmbus. If you mean Vmbus on the host, yes, there will be. The initialization is, again, a bit different there. You will see why when my colleague post /dev/mshv code. The long term goal is to refactor the Vmbus initialization code to work in all scenarios. We are not there yet though.
