Both devclouds running on two separate physical hosts.
So, you cannot run kvm on a paravirtualized hpv, which is why devcloud appliance would run xen, the hypervisor running can be virtualbox (tools/devcloud) or kvm (tools/devcloud-kvm). It's upto the hypervisor which is running the appliance to provide host only network, while this is ready made in virtualbox, one can setup a virtual network for vms in kvm (Marcus should advise here). And yes, you can do that, run mgmt server+mysql in one devcloud and use other as host+nfs/localstorage. > > 2-Is it possible to configure devcloud-kvm to use qemu emulation without VT-x > and not use xen ? > I tried that once and it just did not work for me; maybe it's possible, one should be able to run vms on qemu emulation. I think http://devstack.org does that and so should be do-able.
