I have created an Apple silicon macOS Sequoia VM using UTM on my Mac also running macOS Sequoia. As noted in the documentation, I can now sign-in to iCloud in the VM.
I want to update the VM to macOS Sequoia 15.1 beta. (I understand that Apple Intelligence won't be available in the VM. I need to test my software.)
However, when I go to Software Update in the System Settings, I am not offered the opportunity to enroll in the beta. (The "Beta Updates" section never appears.)
Is this intentional?
I have the same frustration. We use VMs to do integration testing with our software which has an Endpoint Security System Extension. VMs are perfect for testing this as we can quickly revert the VMs back to a known state, boot them, install our software, and run an automated testing suite.
Currently, we are having to rebuild beta VMs every time a new beta is dropped as it's becoming essentially impossible to do in-place updates of the beta OS on a VM :(.
Given we need to make use of configuration profiles to ensure smooth operation of our solution, this is a laborious process and simply updating the OS in place would save us a lot of time and effort.
