Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. It exclusively discusses nested virtualization in the context of Hyper-V, which is only available on Windows-based lab VMs. All configuration steps, tooling, and examples reference Windows technologies (Hyper-V, PowerShell, VHDX). There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity for Linux-based virtualization tools (such as KVM or VirtualBox). Linux is only mentioned as a possible guest OS, not as a host or in any configuration context.
Recommendations
- Add guidance and examples for nested virtualization using Linux-based hosts (e.g., KVM, QEMU) if supported by Azure Lab Services.
- Include Linux command-line equivalents for configuration steps, such as creating and managing nested VMs.
- Mention Linux virtualization tools and patterns (e.g., libvirt, virt-manager) where appropriate.
- Clarify whether nested virtualization is fundamentally limited to Windows/Hyper-V in Azure Lab Services, and if so, explain the technical reasons.
- Provide more detailed instructions for running Linux guest VMs, including integration services, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.
- If Linux hosts are not supported, make this limitation explicit early in the documentation.
