Intel VT-x

Post by shumi » 2011/08/18 15:36:52

I'm trying to make a VPS and have XEN installed and working but when i'm trying to create a guest i can only create paravirtualized guest, not fully virtualized.
The Vistualization is enabled on servers bios but XEN stills tells me that the CPUs doesn't support full virtualizations.

The server is HP ProLiant dl580 G3 with 4 CPUs Intel Xeon 3.16

Probably the BIOS option is there in case you have a different processor that supports VT-x where yours apears to be [url=http://ark.intel.com/products/27101/64-bit-Intel-Xeon-Processor-3_16-GHz-1M-Cache-667-MHz-FSB]this one[/url]. The Xeon 7040 has VT-x for example. Does it list 'vmx' in /proc/cpuinfo?
