Doc Text:
A new VDSM hook that configures the nested virtualization feature in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 is now available as a tech preview. Nested virtualization allows a virtual machine to serve as a hypervisor. VDSM hooks are a means to insert code, commands, or scripts into a point in the lifecycle of a virtual machine, as well as the lifecycle of the VDSM daemon. Packages and features released under tech preview are not fully supported under Red Hat Subscription Level Agreements, and may not be functionally complete, and are not intended for production use.

Description of problem:

ydary@: There is tech-preview support of nested in RHEL7 we should probably provide this hook as tech-preview as well.

Comment 3 rhev-integ 2017-08-14 08:41:11 UTC
Event if it is tech preview, it's odd to have ability to configure Nested Virtualization in UI but to be forgotten to provide required rpm for customers.

Changing to RFE, it's not missing, it was intentionally left out.
