This issue occurs when the virtual machine’s instruction stream is run using binary translation (BT).
To workaround this issue, for all affected ESX/ESXi 4.1 hosts, configure the virtual machines to use hardware CPU/MMU virtualization.
To change the virtualization to hardware CPU/MMU:
- Log in to vCenter Server using the vSphere Client.
- In the virtual machine inventory, right-click the virtual machine and click Edit Settings.
- Click the Options tab.
- Under Advanced, click CPU/MMU Virtualization.
- Select the Use Intel VT-X/AMD-V for instruction set virtualization and Intel EPT/AMD RVI for MMU virtualization option.
- Click OK to save your changes.
