Hi @zadesai

The current labels 'macos-latest' and 'macos-14' are Arm64 based machines and are built using a virtualization platform. Due to the limitation of Apple's Virtualization Framework, Nested-virtualization is not supported in arm64 macOS runners.

The macos14 intel based machines are large runners (macos-latest-large or macos-14-large). Larger runners are only available for organizations and enterprises using the GitHub Team or GitHub Enterprise Cloud plans.

Could you please confirm the runner you are using? If it is arm64 runners we will not be able to add parallels as mentioned above.

Please find the limitations for the runners here : https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners#limitations-for-arm64-macos-runners
