Can I virtualise myself on my vServer?

No, virtualisation (Nested Virtualization) is disabled on our KVM servers. OpenVZ does not support this by default.

So there is no AMD-V or Intel-VT available. If you need a virtualised operating system, we recommend a dedicated server.

What do I need virtualisation for?

You can use virtualisation if you want to use additional operating systems on your server that act independently of the guest machine. The most commonly used technologies for this are, for example, Proxmox or Hyper-V.

Can I use Docker?

Docker does not require any virtualisation technology, as it is a containerisation. More information about Docker on vServers.

Alternatives

If you wish to host your own virtual machines, our dedicated servers are available to you. You can run virtualisation there without any restrictions.
