The node where the nova-compute service is installed and
operates on the same node that runs all of the virtual machines.
This is referred to as the compute node in this guide.
By default, the selected hypervisor is KVM. To change to another hypervisor, change

Specific options for particular hypervisors can be found in the following sections.
