slushieken Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) I have been wanting to do this myself. I took your info to google and found: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_enable_nested_virtualization_in_KVM There, I found the following, which is step #1 Quote $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested N Should respond 'Y' if it is working and 'N' if not available/enabled. Of course if no, like mine, you next enter: Quote $ modprobe kvm_intel nested=1 Then you are supposed to reboot and check again. So, to summarize: 1. Did you reboot? If not, do that. 2. After reboot, re-run the 'cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested'. If it is still showing N, my guess is next to check around your BIOS to make sure all is enabled. I am about to test this myself here. Edit: OK - that didn't work for me... After a reboot still shows: $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested N Going to poke around the bios to make sure but I could swear I had enabled all those functions before...

saarg Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Unraid is loaded into ram at boot, so whatever commands you run before you reboot will not stick. So forget about the rebooting. Follow this post by bungy: Quote Link to comment
slushieken Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Step one complete: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_enable_nested_virtualization_in_KVM Quote $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested Y Fix: Quote From the article: enable it by booting with kvm-intel.nested=1 argument on the kernel command line and check it again Modify the syslinux.cfg file to add this kernel argument. 1. Log in as root to your host OS (unraid) and edit syslinux.cfg. $ vi /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg 2. Modification is below in bold. default /syslinux/menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot kvm-intel.nested=1 3. Save, exit, reboot. Ok thats the first part done for me, I'll come back later to finish this up (or maybe someone else can). In the meantime if you have not already, make that change and reboot.

I was able to load ASAv on my lab! thank you slushieken Thanks for coming back to let me know! I have not yet had the time to actually test this at the VM level for passthrough. Are there any more steps to get it going beyond that? RE: special configuration options for the VM definition? It would sure help me out, and anyone else when they come back across this if so.
