[ovirt-users] Re: Broken doco link for New Host->Kernel boot parameters
Under the vm advanced options, under host. You chose a specific host then allow
passthrough or pinning.

Thanks. The Installation->Reinstall was something I missed but that doesn't seem
to have helped. The host info still says that 'Device Passthrough' is Disabled.
I'm sure I enabled everything I needed to in the BIOS but will have to double check.
This is an old motherboard without IPMI though. Meh.

Hi,
I'm trying to set up one of our nodes with PCI passthrough but there is
a
dead lnk in the documentation for the kernel boot parameter section of
creating a new host.
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/sect-Explanation_of_Setti...
Anyone know where this went or can help me with the options?
Shareef.
In order to change a kernel parameter - set the host into maintenance -> edit the
host -> kernel -> put ticks where necessary or type your kernel parameter and
save.
Next use the 'Installation' dropdown and select reinstall.
Once it's over - reboot the host from UI.
At least this is the way I have enabled nested virtualization.
