Dears,

I'm trying to setup a lab for Ovirt 4.2 on VMware ESXi 6.5.

I checked "Expose hardware assisted virtualization to the guest OS" and "Enable virtualized CPU performance counters" options to activate the nested virtualization.

I installed Ovirt node and I try to setup a self hosted engine on it.

All pre-configrations were done successfully. But when arriving to step  "Running engine-setup on the appliance", the Hosted engine VM wouldn't start.

I open the VM console, it stuck a bios level. It display the following :

SeaBIOS (Version 1.10.2-3.el7_4.1)

Machine UUID ced5025d-eec1-458a-991c-cc3bba9392dd

Does anybody already encountered this issue? Is there any more parameters to set in the ESXi for it to work?

Thanks for your help
