Which statement best describes installing a server operating system (for example, Windows Server) in a Type-2 hypervisor that is running on a desktop operating-system host?
It is possible as long as the hypervisor can allocate enough CPU, memory, and storage resources to the virtual machine.
It is only possible if the host operating system is upgraded to a server edition.
It is only possible when the hypervisor is configured in passthrough (bare-metal) mode.
It is not possible because Type-2 hypervisors only support desktop operating systems as guests.
It is possible as long as the hypervisor can allocate enough CPU, memory, and storage resources to the virtual machine, as Type-2 hypervisors are designed to support diverse operating system environments, including server editions, within virtual machines.
The remaining options are incorrect: Type-2 hypervisors do not restrict guest operating systems to desktop editions;
they do not require the host OS to be upgraded to a server edition, as the hypervisor operates independently of the host OS type;
and passthrough or bare-metal mode is unrelated to Type-2 hypervisors, as this capability pertains to Type-1 hypervisors.
