[chef] kitchen test using vagrant/virtualbox

["Peterson, Rosalba G" < >]

 

Hello,

I am running into some issues trying to boot a 64 bit CentOS/RHEL instance from VirtualBox, installed on a RHEL VM using ESXi for virtualization. It works fine with 32 bits VMs, but as I understand, for 64 bits, I need to enable VT-x/AMD-V in the BIOS setting of the Physical Server CPU to be able to run 64-bit operating systems inside of them. I am not sure if this would work running on virtualization and/or nested VMs.

 

Output:

 

Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...

       ==> default: VirtualBox VM is already running.

I am using chef-zero for kitchen provissioner. Increasing the timeout doesn’t help at all.

Has anyone had any similar issues?

 

Thanks,
