I'm trying to run 64-bit guest inside ESXi 5.0 inside ESXi 5.0. It wasn't possible to run nested VMs in ESXi 4.x, but as far as I know it's now possible in 5.0. But I still get this error when I start nest 64-bit VM:
Host CPI is incompatible with virtual machine's requirements at CPUID level 0x800000001 register 'edx.
Host bits: 0000:0000:0001:0000:0000:1000:0000:0000
Required: xx1x:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
Mistamtch detected for these features:
* Longmode; required when a virtual machine is configured for a 64-bit guest OS. For systems with Intel CPUs, enabling VT in the BIOS is required for longmode support.
I did configure ESXi 5.0 VM with:
- CPU/MMU virtualization: "Use Intel VT-x/AMD-V for instruction set virtualization and Intel EPT/AMD RVI for MMU virtualization"
- CPU ID Level 80000001: edx: --1- ---- ---H ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
Any other suggestions?
