VGPU: nVIDIA Tesla P4 + xcp-NG 8.3 beta 2

fatek

@msupport said in nVidia Tesla P4 for vgpu and Plex encoding: I used instructions from @msupport with a few changes

Download NVIDIA vGPU drivers for XenServer 8 from NVIDIA site.
Version NVIDIA-GRID-XenServer-8-550.54.16-550.54.15-551.78 (Version 17.2)

Unzip, go to Host-Drivers and scp the iso to /tmp (of your vgpu host)

xe-install-supplemental-pack NVIDIA-vGPU-xenserver-8-550.54.16.x86_64.iso

Download free XenServer8_2024-03-18.iso from Citrix site

Mount XenServer8_2024-03-18.iso, copy vgpu binary file from Packages/..../vgpu to /usr/lib64/xen/bin

Upload vgpu to XCP-ng host to /usr/lib64/xen/bin and made it executable chmod +x /usr/lib64/xen/bin/vgpu

Reboot host

I need to complete steps 8 - 10

Deployed VM with vGPU and it started without any problems

Copy License File from Nvidia License Portal (*.tok) to C:\program files\Nvidia Corperation\vGPU Licensing\ClientConfigToken

Install Windows Nvidia Driver on Windows 11 VM (need connection to api.dis.licensing.nvidia.com Port TCP 443, use Nvidia Control Panel to set the hostname and port for Licensing the Nvidia Card)
