AWS EC2 ubuntu 仿生上的 Minikube 启动问题

Question

我已经启动了 AWS EC2 实例。 使用 Putty 客户端登录到实例。 下面是我在 EC2 实例（即 Ubuntu 18.04）上尝试的所有命令。 EC2的详细配置如下

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic

我已经安装了 docker 和 virtualbox

~$ docker --version
Docker version 19.03.8, build afacb8b7f0

$ dpkg -l | grep 'virtualbox'
ii  virtualbox-5.2                       5.2.30-130521~Ubuntu~bionic                 amd64        Oracle VM VirtualBox

$ lscpu | grep Virtualization
Virtualization type: full

我尝试启动 minikube。

$ minikube start

根据错误信息，我也尝试了以下命令：

$ minikube start --no-vtx-check

我去了错误日志中指定的所有 jira，但没有用。其中大多数都没有谈论 Amazon EC2 ubuntu 18.04 中的问题。

问题： 如何在登录到 ubuntu 18.04 的 EC2 实例的 BIOS 中启用 VT-X/AMD-v？有什么命令我可以试试吗？注意：我无权访问 AWS EC2 实例 GUI。

AWS EC2 Ubuntu 18 实例是否与 virtualbox 5 或 6 兼容以启动 minikube？

问题：如何在 ubuntu 18.04 登录的 EC2 实例中的 BIOS 中启用 VT-X/AMD-v？有什么我可以尝试的命令吗？注意：我无权访问 AWS EC2 实例 GUI。

你不知道，EC2 是一个虚拟服务器，你无权访问 BIOS。

要在 EC2 上使用 Minikube，您需要在没有 vm 驱动程序的情况下启动它，因此只需执行 $ minikube start --vm-driver=none。如果您坚持使用 Minikube，则描述为 here。

我建议不要安装 Minikube，而是使用 kubeadm 并设置 single control-plane cluster with kubeadm。
