It depends on whether Xen supports it. KVM, just like any other part of a Xen virtual machine, is just a user of Xen in your scenario. That's why I said it's a Xen question. AFAIK Xen added support for nested virtual machines only very recently, I'm not even sure it's in any released version. Paolo
