Ran in to the same issue with Ubuntu-12.04. I am trying to set up nova compute in a VM. I wanted to use libvit_type=qemu but i kept getting the error "hvm not supported". Just when I was about to give up and try to reboot my host with nested virtualization capability, I realized that I was adding libvirt_type=qemu in /etc/nova/nova.conf while I should really be adding it in /etc/nov/nova-compute.conf
Doing that resolved my issue! I can now launch a nested VM using qemu. Hope this helps someone :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nova in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1031063 Title: internal error no supported architecture for os type 'hvm' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1031063/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
