I've tried many times to run a node as a guest in ovirt following

. The result is that I'm able to register such a host in engine,
but it is impossible to start any vm on it. If I boot on an ISO, I
can see the first prompt and move between the items. But since I
begin the installation I have a blank screen and the vm goes into
pause mode in vit-manager. Then I have no way else than rebooting
the hypervisor guest because it is impossible to resume. When I
get logs on the real host, I can find this :

As you can see, I have tried many cpu type for launching this
guest hypervisor, but none of them is accepted by the hypervisor.
Plus, I've modified each time the family type in the cluster tab,
but it is the same.

On the hist:
<br>
#virsh capabilities gives
<br>
<cpu>
<br>
<arch>x86_64</arch>
<br>
<model>Westmere</model>
<br>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>

Thanks for your help

What does the command 'qemu-kvm -cpu ?' give ? Could you please
try the following guest cpu definition?<br>
