KVM module not load after installing cloudstack-agent

Question

I follow this guide to install CloudStack and KVM:

https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/cloudstack-installation/en/latest/qig.html#kvm-setup-and-installation

Everything went well but after install cloudstack-agent:

# yum -y install cloudstack-agent

and do the configuration as the guide, I can't see any result when check if KVM is running OK on my machine:

# lsmod | grep kvm

I don't know the reason.

When I check cloudstack-agent status:

# service cloudstack-agent status
cloudstack-agent dead but subsys locked

The log is:

# tail /var/log/cloudstack/agent/agent.log
...

This guide only provides steps to install and configure cloudstack-agent on KVM server.

You need to install KVM first on this server:

# yum install kvm qemu-kvm python-virtinst libvirt libvirt-python libguestfs-tools

After installing these packages, start libvirt service and check if kvm is working fine:

# lsmod | grep kvm

After I installed those packages, there also nothing when run `lsmod | grep kvm`. OS: CentOS 6.8 – cloud_cloud Jun 06 '17 at 03:24
This because I am using vagrant. – cloud_cloud Jun 06 '17 at 04:46
In that case, you won't be able to use kvm. Please check if cpu has vmx or svm flag which is required for kvm. `egrep ‘(vmx|svm)’ /proc/cpuinfo` – errorfetch Jun 07 '17 at 11:37
Yes, I checked that. There aren't. – cloud_cloud Jun 08 '17 at 01:06
