Hi,
I have a VM running under libvirt, and it is currently run with
-no-kvm option (I saw that in "ps" output).
Now I want to run this VM with KVM. How can I reconfigure it for that?
I looked into its configuration file under /etc/libvirt/qemu, but
didnt see any option to turn KVM on.
Run 'virsh edit GUEST' and on the top <domain> element, change the
type attribute to be 'kvm' instead of 'qemu'. ALso in the
<emulator> element change the path to point to /usr/bin/qemu-kvm
NB, make sure you have the kvm modules loaded of course, otherwise it'll
still fallback to emulation
