Dual video adapters - what should I see, and where?
-
xcp-ng 8.3 on a Dell R810 w/ Geforce GT730 four port HDMI adapter set up as PCI passthrough. Card has been isolated from Dom0.
Several VMs - one Win11 Pro; others are various Linux Mint versions.
Let's start with the Windows VM. I installed the appropriate NVidia drivers and connected up a few monitors to the card. Device Manager shows the driver as initialized and running.
Initially I accessed the VM from the Xen Orchestra Console and went to Display Settings to check for the presence of multiple displays. Nada - the only one showing was the server's built-in VGA adapter.
I then pressed "Detect other displays" and locked the VM up. Reboots show a black screen in the Console (hadn't checked the HDMI monitors yet; server is remote).
What SHOULD I be seeing here - all the displays listed or just the Console's video device?
I'll touch on the Linux stuff later in thread.

Did you enable PCI-Pass through for the nvida card? If so did you then add the pci card to the vm? the gpu can only be utilized by 1 vm at a time fyi.
