Does EVC support VT-x

Hello All,

I am not an expert in Vmware, kindly bear with me.

The customer is trying to deploy OVA of our application which is packaged into Ubuntu 14.04. Our application requires VT-X and EPT technologies also required nested virtualization.

The OVA is deployed in UCS-C240_M35, ESXI 6.0 and a cluster in which has EVC enabled and runs on EVC mode Penryn. when we power on the VM we get the following error.

The Host details

We also get the following error while trying to migrate.

The Host CPU Intel Xeon E5-2680 supports VT-x and EPT, so there is no reason for that error to pop in. Will EVC limit the VTX capabilities running in EVC mode Penyrn?

Thanks in Advance,

Romal
