Hi,
I found a problem in my new xenkernel set-up while installing VM. both the virt types
paravirt and fullyvirt are disabled. Then i observe that command
#grep vmx /proc/cpuinfo
gives no output. Please help me enabling vmx in my intel xeon server. Or may be its a kernel level issue since i have a successfully running xen-FC8 setup with 10 vms on the same machine.
Regards,
Fasiha Ashraf

VMX is hidden from guest kernels as it's not a feature they themselves can
make use of. Hence it does not appear in the guest's /proc/cpuinfo.

Any plans for 'nested' VMX support? KVM seems to have that..

It's a processor flag telling you that you have processor virtualization
support.
It only exists on real physical processors and does not exist on virtual
cpus.

Nice to have but arguable usefulness I'd say. I don't think anyone is
working on it.

I just need to make sure that its enabled or not, by running this command in my dom0.
#grep vmx /proc/cpuinfo
It can be enabled somewhere in BIOS or if there is any other method please help me setting this flag for my intel xeon quad core processor.

No i just need to enable virtualization flag on my intel xeon quad core processor, so that i can create paravirt VMs in my set-up. Which at this time virt-manager is not allowing me to do.

It is normally enabled in the BIOS. There should be an option called Intel
Virtualization Technology: Enabled or Disabled
What is the brand/model of your motherboard?

For paravirtualized guests I don't think you need the hardware
virtualization assist (VMX). You only need vmx when you want to create HVM
guests.

Yeah... I believe so till now. If this is true why my virt-manager behaving like this. PFA some screen shots of virt-manager, both virt types para and fully are disabled. and it stops me from creating a VM.

Hi
I am not using virt-manager or any management solutions.
I created my virtual machines manually.
For virtual disks, you can create it using dd or use LVM or physical
partitions.
After that you just need to create a vm configuration file. Then you start
the vm using the xm create command.

Hi
I am not using virt-manager or any management solutions.
I created my virtual machines manually.
You mean using pre-built guest images?
For virtual disks, you can create it using dd or use LVM or physical partitions.
Please guide me creating LVMs. blow is my partition details:
[root@Server1-FC11 ~]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 438.4 GB, 438489317376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 53309 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000080
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 2180 17406427+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 2181 42776 326087370 83 Linux
/dev/sda4 42777 53309 84606322+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 * 42777 53309 84606291 83 Linux
After that you just need to create a vm configuration file. Then you start the vm using the xm create command.

For
paravirtualized guests I don't think you need the hardware virtualization assist (VMX). You only need vmx when you want to create HVM guests.

No i just need to enable virtualization flag on my intel xeon quad core processor, so that i can create paravirt VMs in my set-up. Which at this time virt-manager is not allowing me to do.

Hi,
I believe your /dev/sda1 is /boot. It appears all your available space on
harddisk /dev/sda is used up (all 53309 cylinders). Could you free up disk
space by deleting some partitions (be sure to backup your data first!!!)? Or
do you have another empty harddisk?
Having another empty harddisk is a better idea. When you plug it in, it will
become /dev/sdb (if SCSI or SATA).
Disk /dev/sda: 438.4 GB, 438489317376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 53309 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000080

VMX is not needed for paravirtualized (PV) guests. VMX is only needed
for fully virtualized (HVM) guests.
Are you sure you're running Xen? What does "xm info" and "xm list" tell
you?
