Azure arm64 VM sku with nested virtualization

I am what sku I should use that is based on arm64 + support nested virtualization as needed by Install-WindowsFeature "Hyper-V"

Install-WindowsFeature : A prerequisite check for the Hyper-V feature failed. azure-arm: 1. Hyper-V cannot be installed: The processor does not have required virtualization capabilities.

I have tried Standard_D2ps_v5 but it doesn’t support nested virtualization.

    Azure arm64 VM sku with nested virtualization

    The error you encountered above is due to the selected SKU: Standard_D2ps_v5, not supporting nested virtualization. You can use Dv3 and Ev3 series Windows Server VMs.Check nested virtualization-supported SKU’s here.

    I created a Windows VM with the SKU: Standard_E4s_v3 with Security Type: Standard.

    Note: Nested Virtualization supports Security type: Stanadard

    enter image description here

    After creating the VM, Hyper-V was installed on the VM

     Install-WindowsFeature -Name Hyper-V -IncludeManagementTools

    Output:

    After restarting the VM, Hyper-V was installed on the VM.
