blackmondy Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Any plans for this feature ? Would be nice to use a 12Gb Titan X and allocate 4Gb of Vram to 4 VMs. 3 Quote Link to comment
saarg Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 This needs to be supported by the GPU. As far as I know, you can already use a GPU for two VM's if you use a quadro card from nvidia. Requirement is that the card is split in different iommu groups. Quote Link to comment

Damn I need to buy a p4000 sooner than I thought. Can anyone confirm this?! Quote Link to comment
Maor Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Would like to know what are the options? What about AMD MxGPU? I could not find anything on the state in jvm, but AMD has downloady for KVM available. Quote Link to comment

I have a Quadro P4000 in my server that is shared to some dockers, problem is that I got about 99% GPU left to use. Would be great if I could split the GPU to atleast 1 VM running at the same time as the dockers. So my question is, how do split the card in different iommu groups? Quote Link to comment

Not possible with a p4000, sorry. Moreover, I'm quite sure nvidia grid is not compatible with the kvm hypervisor. Edited January 4, 2020 by ghost82 1 Quote Link to comment

Joe Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 According to this KVM does support it in some configurations: https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/latest/grid-vgpu-release-notes-generic-linux-kvm/index.html#hypervisor-software-versions Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 That link says it is supported on Red Hat versions of Linux, but Unraid is Slackware based. Quote Link to comment
Keexrean Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) It would indeed be great, and even without thinking of gaming, just for GPU accelerated virtual desktop VMs or video encoding VM (because you know... cineform, adobe encoder on windows 10 mandatory to me.) Even more interresting since I locally found a source for eventually acquiring 4 Grid K2 s for 50€ a piece. If someone has any input of if it might work or not, I'm might take the leap! I have a R720 that could take them in, and a R710 sleeping in a box in my storage. Could totally happen. Edited May 5, 2020 by Keexrean Quote Link to comment
sekrit Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Any updates on P4000 slicing in Unraid? It'd be INCREDIBLE to be able to quarter this card into 4 VM displays! Quote Link to comment
