CentOS

Hi,

I try to create a VM in KVM.

I have a repo HTPP on my server accessible in CHROME.
For testing i have disabled Firewalld.

I want to acces to the VM by VNC.

I run this command :

Code: Select all

[root@serveur qemu]# virt-install --name VM01 --ram 1024 --disk path=/vm/vm01/hdd01.img,size=8 --network bridge=virbr0 --location 'http://192.168.113.146/rhel/' --os-variant rhel7 --graphics vnc --noautoconsole
WARNING  KVM acceleration not available, using 'qemu'

Début d'installation...

Création du domaine...                                                                                            |    0 B  00:00:01
Installation du domaine encore en cours. Vous pouvez vous reconnecter à
la console pour terminer le processus d'installation.

After, I ask the VNC port console for install the OS VM.

Code: Select all

[root@serveur ~]# virsh vncdisplay VM01
192.168.113.146:0

I launch VNC, the console open but i have a black screen :

Is someone can help me?

Thanks,

Matt

WARNING KVM acceleration not available, using 'qemu'

There's a major problem there. If it cannot use KVM then whatever you try to run will be dog slow as it'll be using emulation. You need to check your BIOS and make sure that virtualization extensions are enabled there (VT-x not VT-d). You'll want to solve that before you go any further as your install will run for hours without kvm. You'll also need to check your processor has the vt-x flag listed - some Intel ones don't have it at all.

It may even be the explanation for your current problem. Things will run so slowly without kvm that it may appear to be hung.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I use KVM in a VM.
I try to this do just for to learn.

This VM is not in a Production environement.

My problem to acces VNC console is from this message "WARNING KVM acceleration not available"?

If you created a VM that will play the role of KVM hypervisor, this is called nested virtualization.
In order to speed things up , you should follow this guide .

Well you have a console and it has stuff on it that shows it's working. My suspicion is that it's just so slow due to the lack of kvm that it might take hours to move onto the next step. If you're doing this in a VM then make sure you have nested virt enabled - that will probably involve changes to the hypervisor that's running your VM now.

Hi,

After activate "Virtualize Intel VT or ADM-V" in the setting of the VM the setup start successfully !!!!

Thanks for your help
