A hypervisor is not running.

English Virtualization

Hi,

After install of KVM via YaST and reboot, I get this error when I try to create a VM:

Error: A hypervisor is not running. For kvm, load the kvm kernel modules. If you want to run xen, reboot and load the xen kernel.

libvirtd is Enabled and Active

I also get these messages in my logs:

2014-06-10T16:10:14.044983-06:00 linux-fbzw libvirtd[3385]: Cannot create route - destination and gw are both 0/0
2014-06-10T16:10:14.045742-06:00 linux-fbzw libvirtd[3385]: Cannot create route from netlink message: No such file or directory

What can I check?

Thanks!..

Why would this happen and how can I fix this?

Hi
So did you load the kvm_(amd or intel) module for your system? Is
virtualization enabled in the BIOS? Which ever module you use needs to
be added to the ‘MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT’ entry in /etc/sysconfig/kernel.

Don’t forget to enable your vm to autostart on system reboot…

Thanks! I had to enable the VT in bios, I just remembered I update it last week, and I did a fresh install.
