So let me draw a picture. If it is correct then that means on machine n
hypervisor i must support nested virtualization.


machine m:


   guest 1   guest 2   guest N
     |         |          |
     +---------+----------+
               |
            hypervisor h


machine n:

   guest 1   guest 2   guest N
     |         |          |
     +---------+----------+
               |
            hypervisor h        guest X  guest Y
               |                   |        |
               +-------------------+--------+
                         |
                     hypervisor i
