Windows server 2012 Hyper-V on VmWare ESX 5 and Workstation

I Was trying to install Hyper-V role on VMware workstation and it seems am no longer allowed to do so.
You will endup with a warning message Hypervisor already running


Edited the cloned VM's vmx file, Add the 4 entries:

mce.enable = TRUE
hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = FALSE
featMask.vm.hv.capable = "Min:1"
vhv.enable = TRUE



OR ALternatively you can also do the below

Search for guestOS and change the entry as below

guestOS = "winhyperv"
