Jan Richter commented on JBDS-4303:
-----------------------------------
I'm willing to bet that chance VT-x is disabled is dwindling somewhere in the
decimals. All Intel based mac machines have this feature enabled and there is no way to
change this setting in the system. Hence the only kind of user that might actually have it
disabled I can think of is either one with ancient EFI Firmware, or one that actively
hacked into it.
The whole point of my rant is, the typical mac user will not expect to be asked about
virtualization on their system, because they expect it to just work, or just don't
know what it means. I'm not a fan of the permanent warning message and I expect the
mac users not to be either.
TL;DR: Is it worth it to show a warning all the time because some 0.x% of mac users might
have the virtualization disabled (probably by their own fault) ?
Show warning for virtualbox component if virtualization is not
enabled or cannot be detected (macos)

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4303
Project: Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio (devstudio)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: platform-installer
Affects Versions: 10.3.0.AM2
Reporter: Denis Golovin
Assignee: Sudhir Verma
Fix For: 10.4.0.AM2
Current implementation shows errors and warning under item selected for installation.
See confirmation page error message for virtualbox Installer
[
here|https://github.com/redhat-developer-tooling/developer-platform-insta...].
Confirmation page controller should run Virtualization detection along with installed
components detection and show warning under virtualbox item if it is detected or selected
for install.
If Virtualization firmware status cannot be detected (windows 7) message should say:
* Make sure hardware virtualization is enabled on your platform if supported to improve
performance.
if Hardware Virtualization is Disabled:
* Please enable hardware virtualization for your platform to improve performance
If Hardware Virtualization is Enabled, no message is required.
