@john-c Yeah, tried all of that. I get the same issue with older GPU's when vGPU'ing them. So I'm wondering if it's a setting on the Dell Server BIOS.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 beta 🚀
Just providing feedback:
Love the XO interface at the start, very helpful. Also, I do like the colour scheme. It turned a few heads in the datacentre the other day.
Using a Dell R740xd with 2 GPU's to pass through - Works fine and given the GPU's to a VM each (for 3D mapping).
After watching Lawrence Systems device passthrough vid, I managed to view a PUSB in the XOA via the host. I managed to pass it through to a Windows 10 VM but cannot see if in the device manager. Assuming that this still in beta stages so will try a different set of USB devices for testing but so far the Seagate RSS LLC_00000000NAB7AQ06 doesn't show in Windows.
Happy to test further

RE: AMD Radeon S7150x2 - Not being seen by VMs
Some further updates on this particular issue. I managed to see the graphics card on a Windows 2016 standard (older ISO) install. I installed it natively onto the Dell server. It worked for about 20 minutes before it crashed the server and then kept crashing each time Windows loaded. So it would seem that this may be possible if using Windows 2016 Server standard, and possibly if I can work out how to update the firmware of the graphics unit.
I do know that a Radeon FirePro W2100 and a Radeon PRO WX 3200 work for passthrough. I have both running on one server feeding a 3D globe VM and a 3d processing VM. It's a shame I cannot get the AMD Radeon S7150x2 working.

RE: AMD Radeon S7150x2 - Not being seen by VMs
Deal all,
So, non of the above seemed to work. I'd imagine there's some sort of firmware update I need on the graphics card to get this to function properly.

All,
Very good suggestions. I will try them later today!

RE: AMD Radeon S7150x2 - Not being seen by VMs
@splastunov I've done that but it prompts that it can't see the graphics card. It works fine on normal pass through.
I think we are going to use pass though to just run a giant VM and chuck graphics related things at it. It was a bargain purchase at £150 for the graphics card so I'm going to keep it. I installed Windows Server 2019 DC and it was a similar result so it's a possibility that the firmware is out of date on the GFX card? Clutching at straws really.

RE: AMD Radeon S7150x2 - Not being seen by VMs
@planedrop So what I have tried so far:
Hardware
CPU model Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v4 @ 2.10GHz
GPUs G200eR2, Tonga XT GL [FirePro S7150], Oland GL [FirePro W2100], Tonga XT GL [FirePro S7150]
Core (socket) 32 (2)
Hyper-threading (SMT) Enabled
Manufacturer info Dell Inc. (PowerEdge R730xd)
BIOS info Dell Inc. (2.12.1)Software
Version 8.2 XCP-NG
Windows 10, versions 1709 to 22H2
Ubuntu 18.04What's interesting is that in device manager there is a PCI card showing up but you cannot install the graphics card drivers to it. In Ubuntu I get an issue where I get logged out in 1 minute. Taking the graphics card out of the equation it runs fine. If I have the graphics card set to be passthrough only, it can be seen but then I have an over kill graphics card on one VM.
I think I'm going to abandon the idea as it's take too long to sort. It seems to me like a bug/setting/issue with the BIOS, hardware and software. But it's too broad to troubleshoot too much more.
Cheers

@planedrop Yes, that's right. It can't detect a gpu.

AMD Radeon S7150x2 - Not being seen by VMs
Hello,
I'm having issues seeing a graphics card in the Windows OS on a fresh install with vGPU.
I enabled SR-IOV on the BIOS
Installed 8.2
Copied and installed the mxgpu-2.0.0.amd.isoIn Xen Orchestra I can see and divide the GPU's from the card on the VM. This shows up in Xen Orchestra fine. What I can't do is install the drivers for this card in the OS on the VM I'm giving it to.
What troubleshooting steps do I need to take to get this to be seen? It seems odd that all else can see the graphics card except the VM I've associated it to.
Running on Dell R730xd Server with AMD Radeon S7150x2 graphics card. Fresh build of everything this morning. I have another R730xd and it does the same on that.

It seems that some of the VM's have now finished backing up, after forcing them. One of them keeps failing, hence the above error message.
