Post ASRock 990FX Extreme4 + FX8120 - Nested Virtualization
Hello All...

I am building a new home lab and one of my KEY requirements is being able to run NESTED VM's. In another words I need to be able to run 64bit VM's nested under 2 ESXi instances. ESXi - vESXi - 64bit VM. Does anyone know if the ASRock 990FX board and the FX8120 allow for this to work correctly?

Thanks in advance..!

This would be a good read for you.
http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8970

Specifically states ....
Unfortunately, this feature does not work on AMD "Bulldozer" CPUs running ESXi 5.0.

although I have not tested and can not confirm.... but the write up seems complete.
