How to test Oracle Vm on qemu-kvm

798463Dec 4 2018 — edited Dec 5 2018

Hello,

I have to do a test on Oracle VM 3.4.4 (that should be based on Xen 4.4.4).

The test aims in simulating storage migration in OVM, where I have to migrate also the so called server pool file system, that requires a special procedure.

I'm just trying to proceed with the hypervisor steps (Oracle VM Server), that is the more difficult part, I suppose.

I'm testing at the moment on a Fedora 29 system, using qemu-kvm, setting host-pass-through for the vm dedicated to the Oracle VM Hypervisor.

I already tested nested virtualization hypervisors inside this system, so the host part should be ok.

I have set disks as scsi and vnic as e1000

Installation gone ok but at reboot I see cpu stuck and no prompt yet

see here:

I have not yet understood exactly the reason of complain...

Probably virtio_console module

Any one already able to create a Xen (or Oracle VM) nested environment inside qemu-kvm?

The OS of the Xen dom0 should be based on Oracle Linux 6.x, correct?

Thanks in advance for any help or pointers.

Gianluca
