Hi, everybody! Help to solve a problem. I installed eve-ng on esx. But in attempt will start a node with qemu (example Linux), loading starts and at once hangs. Support of virtualization is enabled.

I guess VT is NOT enabled...
check with: grep vmx /proc/cpuinfo
if vmx is not shown, VT is not enabled....

Hi dendj2402,
I see that you ESXi system is with an AMD processor, please can you specify what model is?
I'm getting issues with EVE and my AMD Phaenom II X6 1055t.

Could you please show us the output for "cat /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/nested" from EVE-NG VM?
