Hello,

hosted-engine has to be executed on a physical host (or a nested host
with all the proper CPU flags) that supports KVM virtualization. That
means linux kernel and the vmx flag in /proc/cpuinfo iirc.

I am also adding Sandro who is the maintainer of the setup tool as he
might have some additional insights.

In hosted-engine the engine will run as a VM so if your host is a virtual machine too you are going to create a nested deployment. To create a nested env you need to:
- enable nested virtualization on the external hypervisor, follow here as a reference if you are using oVirt http://www.ovirt.org/Vdsm_Developers#Running_Node_as_guest_-_Nested_KVM
- if you are using oVirt as your external hypervisor, disable no-mac-spoof filter on the physical hypervisor otherwise your engine VM will no have network connectivity at all. You can proceed following this instructions: https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/tree/master/vdsm_hooks/macspoof
