Hi People,
I have an environment system as follows:
Host System:
O.S: Windows 10 Pro (x64)
CPU: Intel i5-2520M @ 2.50Ghz
RAM: 8 Gbs
VirtrualBox: 5.1.24-117012
VirtualBox ExtensionPack: 5.1.24-117012
I run a VirtualBox (within the Host) Windows 2012 x64 environment (Guest 1).
The VirtualBox System tab for the Windows 2012 virtualization is as follows:
Paravirtualization: Default
HW virtualization VT-X/AMD-V (powered on)
What I need is to be able to run a NEW x64 virtual machine (O.S. Linux) inside the virtual guest 1, windows 2012 environment.
This is known as NESTED Virtualization.
Is it possible?
What should I do (step by step) to get the goal of NESTED x64 Virtualization as follows: Host (x64) Windows 10 + Guest 1 (x64) Windows 2012 + Guest 2 (x64) Linux.
NESTED Virtualization

Re: NESTED Virtualization
Nested virtualization is not supported at the moment. VT-x does not get through to the guest, so at the most you could have a 32-bit guest only, but as I said, even that is not supported.
