Detailed explanation-1: -Identify which statement is TRUE about a bare metal hypervisor? It can only be hosted on an existing operating system.
Detailed explanation-2: -Type 1. A type 1 hypervisor, also referred to as a native or bare metal hypervisor, runs directly on the host’s hardware to manage guest operating systems. It takes the place of a host operating system and VM resources are scheduled directly to the hardware by the hypervisor.
Detailed explanation-3: -A Type 1 hypervisor runs directly on the host machine’s physical hardware, and it’s referred to as a bare-metal hypervisor. The Type 1 hypervisor doesn’t have to load an underlying OS.
Detailed explanation-4: -A Type 1 hypervisor runs directly on the underlying computer’s physical hardware, interacting directly with its CPU, memory, and physical storage. For this reason, Type 1 hypervisors are also referred to as bare-metal hypervisors. A Type 1 hypervisor takes the place of the host operating system.
