Thanks all for the feedback.

When we bought the servers, they put some Nvidia Quadro P4000's in, but I can't seem to find anything that says they support vGPU.

I wasn't aware of the license server requirement for Nvidia, but the pricing isn't too bad, so I can probably get that pushed through. Anyone aware of which AMD cards are supported by oVirt? I have only found a list of Nvidia cards.

Thanks,

Kim



Hello,
updated list of supported GPUs for vGPU functionality should be this one:
https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/gpus-supported-by-vgpu.html

and P4000 seems not to be present

So you could use the other supported method, with passthrough Gpu, following what described here for qemu command line:
https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/latest/grid-vgpu-user-guide/index.html#using-gpu-pass-through-red-hat-el-qemu-cli

and driving oVirt to do so with vdsm hook qemucmdline

I donna if the doc here is up to date, not tested lately:
https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/hook/qemucmdline.html

I think the persist command in case of node is not necessary with NG any more
Developers could confirm and eventually point to the correct page for the hook guide?
