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.
