Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All setup instructions for enabling nested virtualization focus exclusively on Windows environments, specifically Windows 11 and Windows Server, using PowerShell scripts and Windows GUI tools. There are no instructions or examples for enabling nested virtualization on Linux-based template VMs, nor is there mention of Linux virtualization technologies (e.g., KVM, QEMU). Even troubleshooting and connectivity examples assume Hyper-V and Windows tools, with only brief references to Linux as a nested guest OS, not as a host.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for enabling nested virtualization on Linux template VMs (e.g., using KVM/QEMU).
- Provide parity examples for Linux hosts, including command-line steps and relevant tools.
- Mention Linux virtualization technologies and their support status in Azure Lab Services.
- Include troubleshooting steps and connectivity examples for Linux-based hosts and guests.
- Clarify whether nested virtualization is supported for Linux template VMs and, if not, state this explicitly.
