Nested virtualization
-
I was trying to install Docker on Windows, but when I got to the point where I needed to enable virtualisation, I couldn’t do it. Does anyone know why? Here’s what happened:
And I can't turn it on -
Assuming you enabled nested virtualization on the xcp-ng host you also need to enabled in the vms bios settings for windows.

@User-cxs Is there an error message when clicking on / hovering over the yellow warning symbol next to "Nested virtualization" on your Xen Orchestra screenshot?
You need that feature for Docker desktop virtualization to work in your VM.
Also: do you have PV drivers / guest utilities installed on your VM?

I'm getting back to you. I've enabled ‘Nested virtualisation’, and I've also run the following command in PowerShell within the VM: "dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Hyper-V-All /all /norestart
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart" in a PowerShell session within the VM, but it still isn’t working. Is this normal? Is Docker not working on Windows under XCP-NG? -
@User-cxs PV drivers / Xen Tools installed? Was the system rebooted cleanly after enabling nested virtualization/Hyper-V?
