Running Hyper-V on a Windows 10 Desktop in Azure

Question

I created a Win10 Desktop D3 machine and installed Hyper-v. I then created a VM through Hyper-V manager and set the up Nested Virtualization on that VM. I am unable to start the VM with an error that one of the Hyper-V components is not running. Can I use a Win10 Desktop to set up nested virtualization in Azure? Are there other settings I have to configure?

Answer 1

Please refer to this document and check whether the specific VM you are using, supports Nested Virtualization:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/acu

  In the table, *** are Hyper-threaded and capable of running nested virtualization

After that, follow the steps in this document to enable nested virtualization in Azure:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/nested-virtualization

Let me know if you still see issues.
