3 years ago Hi Jim - thanks for this. This is documented here:
- GUI path: https://github.com/Azure/AzureStackHCI-EvalGuide/blob/main/nested/steps/3a_AzSHCINodesGUI.md#enable-the-hyper-v-role-on-your-azure-stack-hci-20h2-node
- PS path: https://github.com/Azure/AzureStackHCI-EvalGuide/blob/main/nested/steps/3b_AzSHCINodesPS.md#enable-the-hyper-v-role-on-your-azure-stack-hci-20h2-node
You need to install the Hyper-V role using this step, rather than doing it with WAC.
Hope that helps. Matt

I am not sure if this is something I am doing wrong. I am working through the step Deploy nested Azure Stack HCI 20H2 nodes with the GUI.
The command I ran(with the VM powered off):
Set-VMProcessor -VMName AZSHCINODE01 -ExposeVirtualizationExtensions $true -Verbose
The command looked to run without error. I proceeded through the guide without issue until I came to the point where I tried to create the cluster in Windows Admin Center. Everything went ok until Install Features step. Every feature except Hyper-V installed fine. The message regarding the installation of Hyper-V stated:
"Please ensure nested virtualization is enabled in order to successfully install Hyper-V on..."
In troubleshooting, I deployed a separate VM, this time running Windows 2019 Server. I went ahead and tried to install the Hyper-V role. At this point, I neglected to run that Set-VMProcessor... command against it. The role failed with a similar message as the Azure HCI vm.
I powered off the 2019 Server and ran that Set-VMProcessor... command. Again, it looked to run just fine.
I started up the 2019 server and retried installing the Hyper-V role. This time, the role installed successfully and I have this test box running fine.
This issue seems to be applying the Set-VMProcessor command against a vm running Azure Stack HCI OS.
Please let me know if this is helpful.
Thanks,
Jim
