Can I virtualize a cloud-based instance of Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

No. Red Hat Enterprise Linux when hosted within the cloud is already virtualized. Subscribers are able to start new instances with a simple command and within minutes have a fully functional server accessible via the web. As this offering includes paravirtualized kernel, there are no supported mechanisms to further virtualize running instances.
