Ok, the issue is unfortunately simple here: on the lower-end we support Intel Conroe Family but your CPU is older and doesn't match the feature set to be detected as a Conroe CPU. The cheapest option is trying to understand which CPU your server mainboard can support (here some hint: http://store.flagshiptech.com/dell-poweredge-2950-cpus-processors-heatsinks/ ); if you server allows something newer, probably with a fistful of dollars you could find it refurbished on eBay or similar. > Virtualization Technology is Enabled in the BIOS and the BIOS is at the > latest released version from 2013. > > I am attaching the logs that were requested. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Simone Tiraboschi [mailto:stira...@redhat.com] > Sent: Tuesday, May 17, 2016 12:31 AM > To: Langley, Robert <robert.lang...@ventura.org> > Cc: users <users@ovirt.org> > Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] During Hosted Engine Deployment.
