9:04 a.m.
I did not start any VM. My intention is to check the virt-install command
to make sure all packages and tools are in place.
So basically, I expect the below output
[root@localhost Packages]# virt-install
ERROR
--name is required
--ram amount in MB is required
--disk storage must be specified (override with --nodisks)
An install method must be specified
(--location URL, --cdrom CD/ISO, --pxe, --import, --boot hd|cdrom|...)
[root@localhost Packages]#
Instead I get error, "Host doesn't support any virtualizations options"
Thx,
kenden

I have a similar issue on Arch Linux.
After connect to the hypervisor, virt-manager will report there is no
hardware virtualization(i.e. kvm) detected.
Howerver, after manually change the xml file from `type=qemu` to
`type=kvm` and start the guest OS, virt-manager will correct display the
"kvm hypervisor".
Since virt-manger use virt-install internally, my problem is similar to
you.

Hi All,
I'm trying to install a VM on host OS (Redhat 6.1, KVM hypervisor).
I've installed all the required RPMs for KVM and libvirt tools.
Here is the list of libvirt RPMs and KVM modules
*kvm.ko
kvm-intel.ko

*When I execute virt-install command I see the below error:
*[root@nsn /]# virt-install*
*ERROR Host does not support any virtualization options*
I've already cross checked the VMX setting in BIOS and it is enabled.
In VMX Feature MSR register , VT bit is set.
Following is some info about the platform:

has anyone encountered similar issues while using libvirt tools?
am I missing something w.r.t installation?
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
