Hello All,

I work for a educational institution, and we currently use oVirt in our datacenter. We are on the latest stable build of oVirt 3.4.4. Most of our hypervisors run CentOS 6.5; however, we have recently been asked if we could assign virtual hypervisors (Server 2012 R2) to some of our classes for learning purposes. I have been doing some research and found that I needed atleast kernel 3.10; therefore, I took one hypervisors and converted it to CentOS 7 fully patched. I also installed the nestedvt hook as described here.

I am all researched/googled out, and I am having no luck. After I do a typical install of Server 2012 R2 it will not let me install the Hyper-V role. I quote "Hyper-V cannot be installed: A hypervisor is already running".

When I run the command cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested it comes back with a "Y". If I look in the host hooks it shows the nestedvt and macspoof. The VM has a custom property of macspoof = true.

Did I miss something? Is this possible? Has anyone done this before?

Thank you in advance for all you do. Your work on this project has helped our community college greatly and our student even more. Because of this project we have be able to give students virtual resources to complete their labs from anywhere at anytime.
