I am evaluating CML for my customer, a large financial. I have trouble installing CML at the first stage, I get an error from within the CML VM when it boots up into the gui "KVM not present, please enable VT-X extensions and restart". I have tried it on 3 different ESX hosts which are all happily running multiple other corporate VM's. I don't understand this message - my interpretation from a bit of googling is that its telling me virtualisation is not turned on on the host - but it must be because the host is running ESXi and supporting lots of VMs already.
I am a routing guy (CCIE) but not expert at vmware, I can get by but no guru. Is there some specific requirement to run CML on ESX that I have missed?
I have RTFM the install guide and release notes.
Thanks
Ian
