Detailed explanation-1: -There are two main hypervisor types, referred to as “Type 1” (or “bare metal”) and “Type 2” (or “hosted”). A type 1 hypervisor acts like a lightweight operating system and runs directly on the host’s hardware, while a type 2 hypervisor runs as a software layer on an operating system, like other computer programs.
Detailed explanation-2: -The biggest difference between both hypervisors is that Type 1 hypervisors are installed directly on the computer hardware, while Type 2 hypervisors are installed on top of a host operating system. This difference dictates how each type of hypervisor will work and what specific uses they are better suited for.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -7. Which of the following is Type 1 Hypervisor? Explanation: Type 1 VMs have no host operating system because they are installed on a bare system.
