RE: No free virtual function found vGPU S7150
@erfant probably not because the nvme driver is loaded and there're no nvme errors in the logs.

RE: No free virtual function found vGPU S7150
@erfant after seeing your uploaded
dmesg
, the steps 2 & 3 boot options can be put aside for while because the error isn't the same as the other topics.The log is showing MxGPU driver probe/initialization errors. After some digging, could be the case of a GPU firmware being incompatible with UEFI. Do you have any spare server for testing XCP-ng boot in legacy/BIOS with this GPU?

RE: Strange issue with booting XCP-NG
@Appollonius said in Strange issue with booting XCP-NG:
Its only when I install the GPU and dont connect it to a monitor that it will not boot properly.
Maybe because, when there's a GPU installed but no monitor attached, the motherboard POST fails at EDID probe? As stated, some boards/BIOS require an explicit configuration in order to boot without a monitor/keyboard/mouse plugged, eg.:

RE: xcp-ng CPU low performance issue
The incorrect clock results mean that Xen isn't in charge of frequency scaling management. Set the CPU Power Management to
Performance Per Watt (OS)
and run the previousxenpm
, this time with awatch
for real-time:# watch 'xenpm start 1 | grep -i "avg freq"'
Start a VM boot storm (or a stress test inside one or more VMs) in order to generate some CPU load.

RE: No free virtual function found vGPU S7150
@erfant could you upload
lspci -k
anddmesg
? Also, have you checked/tried:- SR-IOV enabled in BIOS;
- On
vmlinuz
entry, boot withpci=realloc
; - On
vmlinuz
entry, boot withpci=realloc pci=assign-busses

RE: Strange issue with booting XCP-NG
@Appollonius check the BIOS for display emulation or ACPI configuration. Some boards may refuse to boot If the BIOS isn't properly configured to accept the headless mode.

RE: Firepro S7150x2 SR-IOV Errors
It's from the terminal/CLI. Alternatively, you can verify/change the boot options in
/boot/grub/grub.cfg
(for dom0 boot, seemodule2 /boot/vmlinuz
entries).Found this Citrix KB adding one more pci option, take a look:

RE: Firepro S7150x2 SR-IOV Errors
@tbluml did you try the
pci=realloc
workaround, as stated in the RHEL link?# /opt/xensource/libexec/xen-cmdline --set-dom0 pci=realloc
Edit: reboot the host after applying the change.
