Comment 2 for bug 1691109

Thanks Thomas for redirecting this to us.

@fxpester - qemu uses the latest default machine type.
Since you run on 16.04 but have -zesty types that means you run very likely with the Ubuntu Cloud Archive.

That is what makes more recent virtualization stacks around openstack available on LTS releases.
As Michael already pointed out in c#1 you can set the type as needed.

I'll add a task for the openstack team who maintains the cloud archive so they can see this as well. I have no ESX around to retry atm, but OTOH haven't seen any such issue on Bare metal nor on nested KVM<->KVM. I'm not sure about the severity yet, as nesting is always a bit less supported.

@Openstack Team do you have VMware testbeds?
