<p>We had a system some nodes on VMware in nested mode, I think they may have worked in 3.6 and VMware 6.0, when they were upgraded to VMware 6.5 and oVirt 4.1 when the VMs were started they hung at the SeaBIOS prompt, if they were migrated to a oVirt bare
metal node the VM would finish booting.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I had a Centos KVM VM on the VMware host in nested mode and it would boot VMs without a problem.</p>

<div>Dears,<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm trying to setup a lab for Ovirt 4.2 on VMware ESXi 6.5.</div>
<div>I checked "Expose hardware assisted virtualization to the guest OS"<span class="gmail-"> and "</span>Enable virtualized CPU performance counters" options to activate the nested virtualization.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I installed Ovirt node and I try to setup a self hosted engine on it.</div>
<div>All pre-configrations were done successfully. But when arriving to step "Running engine-setup on the appliance", the Hosted engine VM wouldn't start.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I open the VM console, it stuck a bios level. It display the following :<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>SeaBIOS (Version 1.10.2-3.el7_4.1)<br>
</div>
<div>Machine UUID ced5025d-eec1-458a-991c-cc3bba9392dd<br>
</div>
<div></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does anybody already <span id="gmail-result_box" class="gmail-short_text" lang="en">
<span class="gmail-">encountered</span></span> this issue? Is there any more parameters to set in the ESXi for it to work?
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for your help<br>
</div>
Regards,<br>
