If you are using devstack, I think you just need to set libvert_type=kvm, then run stack.sh, it will set it up for you if you had KVM supported on that machine. Also an article to help you with it can be found here.

The only thing that you have to do is modify the /etc/nova/nova.conf file [libvirt] ... virt_type = kvm Enable the kvm_intel kernel module and restart the service of nova compute Regards, Victor Morales From: shine nelson <radioactive.l...@gmail.com< mailto:radioactive.l...@gmail.com>> Date: Friday, July 3, 2015 at 10:21 PM To: "openstack@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack@lists.openstack.org>" <openstack@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack@lists.openstack.org>> Subject: [Openstack] Switching to KVM from QEMU Hello, I just recently installed DevStack on my Dedicated Server running Debian 8 (Jessie). After install, I read that KVM would run better (and faster) on server infrastructure than QEMU. But I think I was too late to realize it. I had already initiated stack.sh. My question is : Can I switch to KVM without having to re-install DevStack? If yes, can somebody help me out by pointing to the right docs / procedure to achieve this?
