Cannot use "KVM hardware virtualization" when I choose Windows Server type of VM
In error message I got :

Hyper-V paravirtualized IPI (hv-ipi) is not supported by kernel
kvm: kvm_init_vcpu failed: Function not implemented
TASK ERROR: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1

I can install WIndows where I'm choosing Type of VM Linux
 
Could you post the output of the following commands on your PVE host?
Code:
pveversion -v
Code:
lscpu
Code:
cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested
Code:
cat /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/nested
Code:
qm config VMID

It would be great if you could wrap your code snippets like [code]YOUR CODE[/code] :) Did you forget sudo before qm? When have you last rebooted your server? This was a simple fix for some people.

He has not substituted the VMID (which I overlooked as well when I saw this command and used.) Forexample it goes: qemu config 100 (ID of a VM)
