Description
Feature Request
Feature link: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPSTRAT-366
Desired Feature
Confidential VMs provide protection to data-in-use by encryption the VM memory with keys that Azure doesn't have access to. Those VMs can also be attested by the user.
See Azure Confidential Computing for more details.
Create Confidential VM on Azure using kola, and run tests.
Example Usage
Command like:
cosa kola run --build=38.20230911.20.0 --arch=x86_64 -p=azure --azure-credentials **** --azure-location eastus --azure-disk-uri xxx --security-type ConfidentialVM --size Standard_DC2as_v5 basic
The ConfidentialVM type includes
secureBoot: Enabled
virtualizedTrustedPlatformModule: Enabled
osDisk:
securityProfile:
securityEncryptionType: VMGuestStateOnly

Start by locating the Azure support used by kola and review how the existing security type and VM options are passed through. Run the example command and related kola tests; done means a Confidential VM can be created on Azure with the stated security settings and the tests pass.
