Hi, Jordan!

I don't know if you've already got your answer, but if not or if someone else ends up having the same question:

You need the setting enable.additional.vm.configuration to be true and you need to allow the specific vm-param-set parameters (such as "platform:exp-nested-hvm") through the setting allow.additional.vm.configuration.list.xenserver.

Once that's done, you need to pass the desired metadata (URL-encoded, so "platform:exp-nested-hvm=true" becomes "platform%3Aexp-nested-hvm%3Dtrue") through the extraconfig parameter of either API (there's no GUI support just yet) deployVirtualMachine or updateVirtualMachine.

Hope this helps,
Gabriel Santos

Dear community,

Running ACS 4.17.2 + XCP-NG8.2.
Is it possible to enable nested virtualization for XCP-NG instances ?
When instances are created the hypervisor metadata is created dynamically
so there is no way to modify that in place.
Is there a config file that is responsible for custom settings of the
metadata on instance creation? Or is there just a better way to do it?

Best regards,
Jordan
