Hello,
I just found this link at Jason Brooks blog page
http://blog.jebpages.com/archives/ovirt-on-ovirt-nested-kvm-fu/

and on my fedora 18 node:
# yum search vdsm-hook-nestedvt
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
============================================== N/S Matched:
vdsm-hook-nestedvt ==============================================
vdsm-hook-nestedvt.noarch : Nested Virtualization support for VDSM

so I'm going to try that way.

Thanks Jason!

Gianluca
