enableNestedVirtualization property
Whether to enable nested virtualization on Cloud Workstations VMs created using this workstation configuration.
Nested virtualization lets you run virtual machine (VM) instances inside your workstation. Before enabling nested virtualization, consider the following important considerations. Cloud Workstations instances are subject to the same restrictions as Compute Engine instances:
- Organization policy: projects, folders, or organizations may be restricted from creating nested VMs if the Disable VM nested virtualization constraint is enforced in the organization policy. For more information, see the Compute Engine section, Checking whether nested virtualization is allowed.
- Performance: nested VMs might experience a 10% or greater decrease in performance for workloads that are CPU-bound and possibly greater than a 10% decrease for workloads that are input/output bound. * Machine Type: nested virtualization can only be enabled on workstation configurations that specify a machine_type in the N1 or N2 machine series.
- GPUs: nested virtualization may not be enabled on workstation configurations with accelerators. * Operating System: because [Container-Optimized OS](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/images/os-details#container-optimized_os_cos) does not support nested virtualization, when nested virtualization is enabled, the underlying Compute Engine VM instances boot from an Ubuntu LTS image.
Optional.
