Which statement explains why Type 1 hypervisor is considered more efficient than Type2 hypervisor?
Type 1 hypervisor runs directly on the physical hardware of the host machine without relying on the underlying OS. This makes it more efficient because it can directly manage the hardware resources, reducing the overhead and potential performance issues introduced by an underlying operating system. This direct access to hardware allows for better performance and resource management compared to Type 2 hypervisors, which run on top of an existing OS.
I think correct C Type 1 hypervisors are an OS themselves, a very basic one on top of which you can run virtual machines. The physical machine the hypervisor is running on serves virtualization purposes only. https://phoenixnap.com/kb/what-is-hypervisor-type-1-2
type 1 hypervisors are known as bare metal and do not require a underlying OS this is called a type 2 hypervisor which does have a os on the bottom
type 1 is bare metal meaning no OS needed to host the hypervisor and hypervisor is directly on hardware. type 2 means that the hypervisor runs as an application on an existing OS that controls the hardware. the answer here is C as skh indicated correctly above
voting. provided answer is correct
C is correct
Answer C states "..without relying on the underlying OS". There is none so is this a catch in the wording . The best answer may actually be A as Type 1 hypervisors do require hardware acceleration
type 1 run on bare metal servers and type 2 run on an installed os
C is correct
