Yes, this is only for testing I am using the oVirt nodes (engine + 3 hosts) all installed on a physical host (SuperMicro SYS-E200-8D) On 2017-05-30 09:55, Nadav Goldin wrote:
You need in the VMs to have the 'vmx' flag, if you are using libvirt you most likely should use 'host-passthrough' mode, otherwise nested virtualization might not work. Regardless of the emulated CPU type, you need to ensure 'vmx' flag is there, this can also be done explicitly in the libvirt XML.
If this is only for testing - I may suggest using oVirt system tests, which will do all these steps for you and setup a working oVirt environment(engine + 2 hosts). But, you will need to run it on a physical host.

To setup nested KVM, I follow these instructions(https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Nested_Virtualization)
to check if is enabled do ("kvm_intel" for intel cpu, "kvm_amd" for AMD) -root@proxmox:~# cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested N (N means it's not, to enable ("kvm-intel" for intel, "kvm-amd" for AMD):)
# echo "options kvm-intel nested=Y" > /etc/modprobe.d/kvm-intel.conf and reboot or reload the kernel modul
modprobe -r kvm_intel modprobe kvm_intel check again
-root@proxmox:~# cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested Y
Question: what other settings need to be enabled in the guest vm? See "test nested virt" at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_enable_nested_virtualization_in_KVM Do we need this setting in the vm? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
