Re: [Xen-users] VMware ESXi 5.5 under Xen4CentOS ( nested hvm )

[Abdallah Jabbour <it-j@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello ,
well it turns that the reported issue is VMware specific due to overprovisioning of the CPU , when assigning the number of cores for the ESXi Guest to 1 vCPU core , the virtual machine installation completed successfully
since i am running two ESXi 6 guest on the Xen Host each with two vCPUs and 4GB of RAM ( minimum requirement ) and there are two more vm running on the Xen Host ( windows server 2008 R2 , and CentOS7 as iSCSI Target ).
