[ovirt-users] Re: vGPU on ovirt 4.3

The main issue isn't oVirt, but Nvidia's drivers inside a virtual machine: You use 'unapproved' GPUs in what Nvidia drivers recognise as a VM, they'll refuse to load. RTX series cards should be ok, I've tried K40 and P100 and they are just as fine with oVirt pass-through. V100 tests are still outstanding, but I am glad Matthias is reporting success. I've been able to trick consumer GPUs into working with KVM on machines that I also use for oVirt, but oVirt itself is constructing the XML files for KVM on-the-fly, so you'd have to fiddle with the code that builds them: I haven't even found that yet. In terms of video rendering I've found the VirtualGL project (https://virtualgl.org/) rather fascinating, which allowed me to run the unengine singularity benchmark and "game" on a V100 GPU projected to a notebook hundreds of kilometers away... The RTX series is supposed to enable partitioning of the GPUs, so several students can get a slice each: Never tried, don't know if that requries extra drivers etc. The target here is evidently remote CAD for aviation and defense, where money belts are quite a bit wider than in education.
