In this vApp there were 13 VMs configured with CentOS 6: 3 compute nodes, 2 swift proxy nodes, 3 swift storage nodes, 3 controller nodes + 2 load balancer nodes (to manage calls for swift storage and swift proxy nodes) In ESXi 5 the steps to configure/enable nested hypervisors was different than in ESXi 6. Recently I was able to configure a nested oVirt environment in ESXi 6 and basically I followed what described here. http://nokitel.im/index.php/2016/03/21/nested-windows-hyper-v-server-2012-r2-on-vmware-vsphere-esxi-6/ and verifying that I was able to load kvm kernel module in my virtual hypervisors and start qemu-kvm on them.
