Nested virtualization in Oracle VM 3.4.6?

edited Mar 31, 2020 5:02AM in Oracle VM (OVM) (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

I have had a setup of Oracle VM running in VirtualBox for some time in order to develop scripts against the manger API and for demos of Oracle VM features. The resource requirements and performance have of course not been optimal at all but it is enough for simple operations on a small cluster. It have been very helpfull to have a consistent environment that you can quickly redeploy whenever you want and not having to run your experimental scripts towards a physical system which might break it.

However recently I upgraded this environment to 3.4.6. And now I am no longer able to configure PVM virtual machines which means they will not boot as the Oracle VM is running in a VirtualBox environment. This makes it a lot harder to test out new features and verify that our automation tools works against the new version and such. So does anyone have any experience in how to re-enable PVM in Oracle VM 3.4.6 for non-production use? I would love to be able to run some demos on the new features.

Howdy, Stranger!
