Using Virtualbox VM's, KVM VM's), if your compute node supports
hardware acceleration for virtual machines.
For this, run the follow command in **compute node**:
::
$ egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
If this command returns a value of **zero**, your compute node does not
support hardware acceleration and you **must** configure libvirt to use
**QEMU** instead of KVM.
For this, change the **virt_type** option in the `[libvirt]` section
of **nova-compute.conf** file inside the **/etc/kolla/config/** directory.
