Nested virtualization is not supported on Hostinger Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting plans. Hostinger disables it to protect resource allocation, system stability, and server performance, so projects that need a hypervisor must run in a local environment or on dedicated bare-metal infrastructure.
Virtualization policy on Hostinger VPS
Nested virtualization is not supported on Hostinger VPS hosting plans.
Hostinger virtual private servers are optimized to provide a high-performing, secure, and reliable environment for hosting websites, databases, and applications. Advanced features like nested virtualization—running a virtual machine inside an already virtualized server—are disabled because they heavily impact resource allocation, lower system stability, and reduce overall server performance.
If your projects strictly require a hypervisor or nested virtual machines, you will need to utilize a local environment or a dedicated bare-metal infrastructure solution.
Hostinger VPS plans run on KVM virtualization without nested virtualization, so run hypervisor-based projects in a local environment or on bare-metal infrastructure.
