Parallels 11 for Mac v11.1.2
El Capitan v10.11.2 as a VM
Yosemite v10.10.5 as HOST

Hi. Im getting the error message while in Parallels running Virtual box so i can run Genymotion for Android Emulation. Its saying the following

VT-x is not available (VERR_VMX_NO_VMX)

** I have added a SCREENSHOT to this post **

1. I have confirmed via termainal that i do have VMX
2. From apple docs it suggests that i should have VT-x turned on being an Intel processor. Im running a macbook from 2011 which
has a i7 and thats possibly the only clue being that the i7 might be slightly older
3. but in saying that i have successully ran the genymotion app with virtual box on the same machine but on the host machine proving that it does work and showing that its either a El Captian problem or Parallels problem somewhere.

If anyone has any idea I would love to hear from them. Thanks

Hi,
do I understand correctly that you are trying to run VM inside VM? If so, it will not work as Parallels provides nested virtualization only for Windows and Linux VMs.

boo, I have the same problem :(

Parallels Desktop provides nested virtualization support that allows you to run Hyper-V virtual machines inside Windows 8, 10 and Windows Server 2012 virtual machines. Not for Mac OS X guest virtual machines.
Note: Running a virtual machine within a virtual machine may slightly slow down the hosting virtual machine performance.
