The SC1435 is a rather old AMD machine IIRC. In fact, we've been using one of those to test oVirt in the very early days. 

As Doron mentioned, you need to make sure virtualization is enabled in the bios, and if you find it off, after enabling it, make sure you do a full power cycle of the server, just saving the bios changes is not enough.

Hi Michael,
the fact that your CPU supports VT does not mean it's enabled in the BIOS.

Reboot the machine and into the security -> virtualization settings. Make sure
it's enabled there.

One more thing you want to verify is that the kvm module is loaded into the kernel-
lsmod | grep kvm

You can also run: dmesg | grep kvm
In most cases you'll find something like kvm: some  error if it's disable by the bios.

Hey Guys,

        First time pposter here, I am having an issue with installing oVirt on a Dell SC1435
I ran lscpu to make sure I was Virtualized in the bios, The following was the result

[root@council ~]# lscpu

So I then tried to run the hosted-engine --deploy and this is what happens:

[root@starfleet tmpengineiso]# screen
[ INFO  ] Stage: Initializing
[ INFO  ] Generating a temporary VNC password.
[ INFO  ] Stage: Environment setup
          Continuing will configure this host for serving as hypervisor and create a VM where you have to install oVirt Engine afterwards.
          Are you sure you want to continue? (Yes, No)[Yes]: YEs
          Configuration files: []

I have attached my logfile, and a few screeshots .... Let me know please,

Thanks,
