virtualbox.org

Hi,

We have a server in which we installed Oracle VM Server 3.4 and created a linux 6.3 VM machine, In this linux VM we are trying to install Virtualbox 5.1 and configure but we are facing this error message :

#/etc/init.d/vboxdrv.sh setup
vboxdrv.sh: failed: running virtualbox in xen environment is not supported

The linux VM machine details:
--------------------------------------------------------
[root@linux63 log]# uname -r
2.6.39-200.24.1.el6uek.x86_64

[root@linux63 log]# uname -a
Linux linux63.aks.com 2.6.39-200.24.1.el6uek.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Jun 23 02:39:07 EDT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Where is the problem?? and how to install VirtualBox in this Linux VM?

Please help!!!!!

I believe the error was crystal clear:

As you were told before, nested virtualization is not supported.

Thanks for your immediate reply.

but that linux VM created with just basic installation, XEN is not installed in it.

So, cant we have virtualbox within a normal linux VM, which created in Oracle VM Server?? why any idea, or any workarounds?


as per: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=80943
I got that by adding 2 parameters in vm.cfg file and able to see 64bit options in virtual box inside linux VM
hap = 1
nestedhvm = 1

What the options I have here now for my requirement??
In my Physical machine we installed Oracle VM Server and want to create a VM in which I want to have multiple VMs? ( so we are using virtualbox here)


Please Guide.

For that guidance you'll have to find another user that has Oracle VM Server and VirtualBox inside a VM. I don't, so I wouldn't know where to start. If the developers have determined that they don't want to run inside a XEN environment, you could try and persuade them.

Where is this file "vm.cfg" that you're referring to? I'm not familiar with it, neither are the parameters ringing a bell. Actually we should be continuing this discussion in the other thread, so if you don't mind posting the details there?

Why don't you install VirtualBox directly on your physical machine and you want it installed in a VM?
