Also, you probably need kvm=off. If you get to the log when esx tries to launch the guest, we will have a clearer picture of what's actually failing but I suspect what I mentioned above is what you are hitting. > cat /proc/cpuinfo on 0 host machine > flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge > mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe > syscall nx pdpe1gb rdtscp lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts > rep_good nopl xtopology nonstop_tsc aperfmperf eagerfpu pni pclmulqdq > dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx smx est tm2 ssse3 fma cx16 xtpr pdcm pcid > dca sse4_1 sse4_2 x2apic movbe popcnt tsc_deadline_timer xsave avx > f16c rdrand lahf_lm abm ida arat epb xsaveopt pln pts dtherm > tpr_shadow vnmi flexpriority ept vpid fsgsbase tsc_adjust bmi1 avx2 > smep bmi2 erms invpcid > > I added these options in /etc/vmware/config > > vhv.allow = "TRUE" > hv.assumeEnabled="TRUE" > vhv.enable = "TRUE" As far as I know, this won't work. You have to trick esx into thinking it's running on real hardware. vhv has esx-isms we probably don't know of yet. Bandan > vmx.allowNested = "TRUE" > > But, it didn't help me.
