Problem running 64-bit VMs on ESXi hosts inside EVE-NG - issue setting 'options kvm ignore_msrs=1'

Hi,

I am having problems running 64-bit VMs on ESXi hosts inside EVE-NG.

From various KVM forums I believe the fix is to add 'options kvm ignore_msrs=1'. I have tried adding this to various files, including:

/etc/modprobe.d/kvm.conf
/etc/modprobe.d/kvm-intel.conf
/etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf

But after a reboot I still see:

root@eve-ng:~# cat /sys/module/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs

N

I can set to to 'Y' with:

root@eve-ng:~# cat /sys/module/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs

Y

But it doesn't survive a reboot.

Any suggestions on how to get this to stick?

I am running Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS with EVE-NG 2.0.3-102.

Thanks
