What is a characteristic of a type 2 hypervisor?

Answer options

• A. complicated deployment
• B. ideal for data center
• C. referred to as bare-metal
• D. ideal for client/end-user system

Correct answer: D

Explanation

A type 2 hypervisor runs on top of an existing operating system, making it more suitable for client or end-user systems where ease of use and quick setup are critical. Options A and B are not accurate because type 2 hypervisors are generally simpler to deploy and not optimized for data centers. Option C describes a type 1 hypervisor, which operates directly on hardware.
