Introducing Mukul

Hello CloudStack team,

My name is Mukul Rajarshi and I have joined Accelerite CloudPlatform testing team. Earlier I have worked on in storage systems, cloud computing, virtualization and data management systems.  This is the first time I am working on CloudStack in the process have followed posts/blogs from some of the members in this community and found them really helpful. Excited to be part of this community and hopefully would be to contribute in future.

Currently I am trying putting up a scratchpad CloudStack environment on VirtualBox. Facing issue when I use KVM hypervisor, XenServer is fine. Let me know there are known issues or gotchas with KVM as a VM.

Hi Mikul

Welcome,

You can also convert your system to linux and run Windows as a VM :)

Then you can do nested KVMs and be fine.

Regards,
ilya

Hi Mukul,

Welcome.  VirtualBox can't  virtualise VT-x so can't pass it through to the guest (nested) hypervisor.
You can run XenServer in PV mode (but it's slow), KVM requires VT-x to be available so you won't be able to start the KVM modules on you CentOS/Ubuntu host.
You need to use VMware Workstation or Fusion Or use a full hypervisor.


Kind regards,

Paul Angus
