Hey there, I posted solutions here earlier: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?tab=wm#search/in%3Asent+ovirt+users/LXphbR... Thanks for the gist reference giuseppe. I haven't updated the approach in a while...but should absolutely explain the reasoning and I think should still just work:).

Hi all, I confirm that:
1) the machine type pc-i440fx-rhel7.2.0 is enough to solve the problem
2) the OVEHOSTED_VM/emulatedMachine variable in answers file is NOT enough (the engine vm hangs again as soon as it gets rebooted, after the successful initial setup), but the VDSM hook in https://gist.github.com/RabidCicada/40655db1582ca5d07c9bbf2c429cdd01 solves the problem (for further vms too, arguably)
Many thanks.

Hi Simone, sorry for the late comment (I just found this thread while researching on nested oVirt-on-VMware issues).
It seems that the problem is generally known and has been solved upstream in kernel 4.16:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1636217
Any ETA on backports in RHEL7? ;-) (Note: should I open a Bugzilla on kernel package for this?) I seems that Hyper-V would experience the same troubles and I think that making nested-inside-Windows-host work should be deemed fairly important for demo/trial/lab uses... :-)
In the meanwhile, workarounds have been published for the new Ansible-based setup flow:
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/UDVRS5I64WLFJJF...
on the other side, I can confirm that with the legacy setup flow (with option --noansible) adding the following to the answer file avoids the problem (did not test whether newer types like pc-i440fx-rhel7.2.0 solve it too):
OVEHOSTED_VM/emulatedMschine=str:rhel6.0.0
Many thanks.
Best regards, Giuseppe

I know for sue that a nested kvm env over vmware esxi is still problematic; kvm over kvm works fine instead.
