For a long time, there was a driver issue with Nv-v4 series VMs; I hope that doesn't repeat with Windows 11.
I require Docker AND GPU; Docker requires Hyper V; Hyper V requires hardware-enabled nested virtualization. I had a d-v3 VM (Standard D4s v3, to be specific) that supported virtualization pretty well. I was hoping they'd bring that support to the N class VMs too pretty soon, but it has taken quite a while now. When might we expect it to happen? Or do they already? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/acu on the subject seem to imply that the N class doesn't support it yet.
