Five boxes stacked from top to bottom and joined by two-way arrows: Application, Operating system, Hypervisor, Operating system, Hardware

The given diagram represents which of the following scenario ?

  • A.Type 1 Hypervisor or virtual machine monitor
  • B.Type 2 Hypervisor or virtual machine monitor
  • C.Type 3 Hypervisor or virtual machine monitor
  • D.Type 4 Hypervisor or virtual machine monitor

Answer: B

The diagram shows a Type 2 Hypervisor or virtual machine monitor.

In the stack, the hypervisor sits on top of an operating system that runs on the hardware, and a guest operating system with its application runs on top of the hypervisor. A hypervisor that runs as a program on a host operating system is a Type 2 (hosted) hypervisor, as with VirtualBox or VMware Workstation.

A Type 1 (bare-metal) hypervisor would sit directly on the hardware with no host operating system below it. There are no standard Type 3 or Type 4 hypervisors.
