If a hypervisor is enabled in your environment, a computer can report as VM Host if Linux KVM is enabled. This occurs because when Linux KVM is enabled, the device can host VMs and thus is categorized as a VM host.
When hypervisors (like Hyper-V, for example) are enabled on the device, we can connect to the root\virtualization or root\virtualization\v2 Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) namespace and successfully query the Msvm_HostedDependency WMI class.

Inventory the device as a computer
To enable the device to report as a computer, disable Linux KVM on the device.
After it has been disabled and the device is inventoried again, it will report as a computer.
