Re: [ovirt-users] Hyper-V in a guest
Sorry, I meant to send this reply to the list earlier, but I
accidentally replied to just Joop.
Hi Joop,
Thanks for your reply.

You will need vdsm-nestedvt installed on all your hosts. It will pass

You will need a relatively new kernel for this. Centos7 or
Centos6+elrepo 3x kernel or Fedora.
I am running on CentOS 7. I installed vdsm-hook-nestedvt and restarted
vdsmd on my host. When I look on the "Host Hooks" tab of my Host's
properties, I see the following:
before_vm_start 50_nestedvt
So it appears to have installed correctly. I fired up my Server 2008R2
guest and tried installing the Hyper-V role, but it still gives me the
message about needing a CPU that supports hardware virtualization
enabled in the BIOS.
The CPU family I am using is SandyBridge, if that makes any difference.
Is there something else I need to enable?

Alan
