RE: Cloudstack/Xenserver/GPU support

2014-06-19 Thread Sanjay Tripathi 
Hi Vijay,

If you want to use the GPU/vGPU functionality in CloudStack then you need to 
install "XS62ESP1" hotfix on top of XenServer 6.2.0. Once you are done with 
patch installation, reconnect the host or restart the management server so that 
CloudStack can detect the GPU cards present in XS host.

Also, as of now, CloudStack UI only supports NVIDIA k1 and NVIDIA k2 cards, so 
if you are using any other card apart from these two, than you need to make API 
call the API call "createServiceOffering" as mentioned in "Web services APIs" 
section here: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/GPU+and+vGPU+support+for+CloudStack+Guest+VMs

Please let me know if you any more queries.

--Sanjay

The problem is that my host doesn’t show the gpu through cloudstack. Just using 
Xenserver direct passthrough, everything works. Just doesn’t work through 
cloudstack.

Re: Cloudstack/Xenserver/GPU support

2014-06-18 Thread Tim Mackey 
Correct.  6.2 SP1 is a different resource within CloudStack, so if you're
on 6.2 or prior GPU pass-through isn't available.

RE: Cloudstack/Xenserver/GPU support

2014-06-17 Thread Devdeep Singh 
Sanjay can correct me if I am wrong, but looks like a different resource gets 
loaded for XenServer 6.2 and XenServer 6.2 SP1. So if you are using 6.2 , 
cloudstack will not query the host for GPU details.

Note that I am using 4.4 dev builds for this so it does have GPU support. So in 
service offerings I do see GPU options but just doesn't work.

The last time I had a requirement to enable passthru of devices to the VMs, 
CloudStack didnt have support for this. While the XenServer itself can do 
passthru, CloudStack service offerings could not be taught to expose these to 
the VMs created via CloudStack.

In short, someone will need to add this feature to ACS. The developer list 
might be a better place to ask this question.
