Our system tests are using nested virtualization. [1] Here the relevant part : Make sure that virtualization extension is enabled on the CPU, otherwise, you might need to enable it in the BIOS. Generally, if virtualization extension is disabled, dmesg log would contain a line similar to: kvm: disabled by BIOS Verify nested virtualization is enabled $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested This command should print `Y` if nested virtualization is enabled, otherwise, enable it the following way: Edit `/etc/modprobe.d/kvm-intel.conf` and add the following line: options kvm-intel nested=y [1] http://ovirt-system-tests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/docs/general/installation...

Hello,
we're installing a small ovirt cluster for hosting some test environments at work. We're interested in testing VM running hypervisors (i.e ovirt itself or a small openstack deployment).
Is there any documentation showing how to enable nested virtualization in ovirt?
I've seen that while adding an host to the cluster there is the opportunity to flag "Nested Virtualization" option, but i didn't understand if other packages and configs are required.
Our environment is running latest ovirt 4.1 installed with ovirt-node-ng.
