hello

is it possible to run a bhyve zone inside an omniOS guest qemu/kvm machine? so far i haven't had luck starting the zone after install

sereg: if th omnios guest is itself running inside Linux kvm, with nested virt enabled, then it is possible

but there may also be bugs

nested virt is pretty tricky to get right

pmooney:so there is hope! thank you it is indeed running inside a linux kvm, i shall redouble my efforts

I believe there's a module parameter to KVM which needs to be set in enable nested virt

something to look for in the docs

unfortunately it seems that i already had nested kvm enabled.

using zlogin to look at the console of the zone, then from a different ssh window starting the zone up with zoneadm i see this: [NOTICE: Zone botting up] [NOTICE: Zone halted]

booting*

There should be a log from the zone that might provide a clue

It's in one of two places depending on how far things got

<zonepath>/log/zone.log or <zonepath>/root/tmp/init.log

I only have the log in the <zonepath>/log/zone.log location, not seeing ERROR but there are lots of DEBUG

this is the zone.log file from the omniOS guest paste.centos.org/view/608ff287
