Explanation

The command that will allow the systems administrator to check whether the system supports virtualization is lscpu. This command will display information about the CPU architecture, such as the number of CPUs, cores, sockets, threads, model name, frequency, cache size, and flags. One of the flags is vmx (for Intel processors) or svm (for AMD processors), which indicates that the CPU supports hardware virtualization. If the flag is present, it means that the system supports virtualization. If the flag is absent, it means that the system does not support virtualization or that it is disabled in the BIOS settings.
