Full Discussion: Command for identifying Virtual Machine
Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Command for identifying Virtual Machine Post 302276532 by vineetd on Wednesday 14th of January 2009 03:34:19 AM

Hi,

I guess I am looking for Software Virtualization. I am trying to find out information about a specific box so need to know if its Physical or Virtual. The Type does not matter. It can be anything. Is there a command for this? For example in Solaris by running the zonename command we can come to know from the output if its a zone or not. Is there something like that in Linux?

Thanks,

Vineet
