.SH "NAME"
systemd-detect-virt \- Detect execution in a virtualized environment
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBsystemd\-detect\-virt\ \fR\fB[OPTIONS...]\fR\ 'u
\fBsystemd\-detect\-virt \fR\fB[OPTIONS...]\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsystemd\-detect\-virt\fR
detects execution in a virtualized environment\&. It identifies the virtualization technology and can distinguish full VM virtualization from container virtualization\&.
.PP
When executed without
\fB\-\-quiet\fR
will print a short identifier for the detected virtualization technology\&. The following technologies are currently identified:
\fIqemu\fR,
\fIkvm\fR,
\fIvmware\fR,
\fImicrosoft\fR,
\fIoracle\fR,
\fIxen\fR,
\fIbochs\fR,
\fIchroot\fR,
\fIuml\fR,
\fIopenvz\fR,
\fIlxc\fR,
\fIlxc\-libvirt\fR,
\fIsystemd\-nspawn\fR\&.
.PP
If multiple virtualization solutions are used, only the "innermost" is detected and identified\&. That means if both VM virtualization and container virtualization are used in conjunction, only the latter will be identified (unless
\fB\-\-vm\fR
is passed)\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
The following options are understood:
.PP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-container\fR
.RS 4
Only detects container virtualization (i\&.e\&. shared kernel virtualization)\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-vm\fR
.RS 4
Only detects VM virtualization (i\&.e\&. full hardware virtualization)\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-q\fR, \fB\-\-quiet\fR
.RS 4
Suppress output of the virtualization technology identifier\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
.RS 4
Print a short help text and exit\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-version\fR
.RS 4
Print a short version string and exit\&.
.RE
.SH "EXIT STATUS"
.PP
If a virtualization technology is detected, 0 is returned, a non\-zero code otherwise\&.
