Today's tip...

We are excited to announce that you can now enable nested virtualization using the Dv3 and Ev3 VM sizes. We will continue to expand support to more VM sizes in the coming months.

For software and hardware prerequisites, configuration steps and limitations for nested virtualization please see the document here.  Check out these articles by Micah McKittrick on troubleshooting Azure VMs when RDP and SSH are down using nested virtualization:
