Hi Tesla,

this could easy be done by adding the following “libvirt-XML” to your template:

RAW = [
  DATA = "<cpu mode='host-passthrough'></cpu>",
  TYPE = "kvm" ]

It`s also possible to change this global by editing the vmm_exec config-file:

/etc/one/vmm_exec/vmm_exec_kvm.conf

Best regards,

Sebastian

Thanks ))
If interesting how to don’t delete VM-- and configure another settings:

virsh edit one-545

/configure /

[root@oneb4 tmp]# virsh destroy one-545
Domain one-545 destroyed

nano /etc/libvirt/qemu/one-545.xml

cpu mode=‘host-passthrough’

[root@oneb4 tmp]# virsh define /etc/libvirt/qemu/one-545.xml

Domain one-545 defined from /etc/libvirt/qemu/one-545.xml

[root@oneb4 tmp]# virsh start one-545

Hi, but consider that there can be problems with live migration if you migrate from host with newer cpu to host with older cpu.
