Using Hybrid mode on NUC
########################
ACRN hypervisor supports hybrid scenario that the User VM
(such as Zephyr or Clear Linux) could run in a pre-launched VM
or in a post-launched VM which launched by Device model in Service VM.
The following guidelines shows how to set up the ACRN hypervisor hybrid
scenario on Intel NUC. The hybrid scenario on Intel NUC is shown in
:numref:`hybrid_scenario_on_nuc`.

Prerequisites
*************
- `Intel NUC Kit NUC7i7DNHE
<https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/boards-kits/nuc/kits/nuc7i7dnhe.html>`_
- Connecting to the serial port, described in :ref:`Connecting to the serial port
<connect_serial_port>`
- Install Grub on SATA or NVME disk of NUC
- Use the `Intel NUC Kit NUC7i7DNHE <https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/boards-kits/nuc/kits/nuc7i7dnhe.html>`_.
- Connect to the serial port as described in :ref:`Connecting to the serial port <connect_serial_port>`.
- Install GRUB on your SATA device or on the NVME disk of your NUC.

Hybrid Scenario Startup Checking

#. Use these steps to verify that the hypervisor is properly running:
a. Login ACRN hypervisor shell from serial console.
#. Use the vm_list check pre-launched VM and Service VM are launched successfully.
a. Log in to the ACRN hypervisor shell from the serial console.
#. Use the vm_list command to verify that the pre-launched VM and Service VM are launched successfully.
#. Use these steps to verify all VMs are running properly:
a. Use the ``vm_console 0`` to switch to VM0(Zephyr)s console, it will show
a string of **Hello world! acrn**.
#. Use a :kbd:`Ctrl+Spacebar` to return to the ACRN hypervisor shell.
#. Use the ``vm_console 1`` to switch to VM1(Service VM)s console.
#. The VM1s Service VM could boot up and login in.
#. SSH to VM1 and Launch post-launched VM2 by ACRN device model launch script.
#. Back to Service VM console, use a :kbd:`Ctrl+Spacebar` to return to the ACRN hypervisor shell.
#. Use the ``vm_console 2`` to switch to VM2(User VM)s console.
#. The VM2 could boot up and login in.
