Does your CPU run Intel-VT or AMD-V?

Check it out using SecurAble on Windows PC.

On RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL),
Run the following command:egrep -e ‘vmx|svm’ /proc/cpuinfo

The following output shows a CPU that has Intel-VT support. If the command returns nothing, then the CPU does not have Intel-VT or AMD-V support.

flags : fpu tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr mca cmov pat clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe constant_tsc pni monitor vmx est tm2 xtpr

To determine if your system has enabled Intel-VT or AMD-V support, run the following command:
cat /sys/hypervisor/properties/capabilities

The following output shows that Intel-VT support has been enabled in the BIOS. If the command returns nothing, then go into the BIOS Setup Utlility and look for a setting related to ‘Virtualization’, i.e. ‘Intel(R) Virtualization Technology’ under ‘CPU’ section on a IBM T60p. Enable and save the setting and do a power off to take effect.
