RE: Cloudstack GPU
Hi Edward, This is my article ;-) I use the GPU in production in two environments, the first as a passtrough in heavy calculations (four cards in SLI) and in the second as a workstations with vGPU (grid) for GIS data visualization (plus small CUDA calculations). Everything works perfectly, stations are automatically called via CMK scripting.

Re: Cloudstack GPU
Hi, I believe we have got the RTX 8000 arriving, and I was planning on testing with the Nvidia vGPU manager.

RE: Cloudstack GPU
Thanks Rohit, Those are the articles I'm basing my ideas on as well, looks like the only available alternative is passthrough, with it's limitations. Am wondering if anyone out there is actually running this in production.

Hi Edward, Which model of GPUs are you using? Going for passthrough?

Re: Cloudstack GPU
Hi Alex, I've heard/seen some users using GPUs with XenServer for graphical rendering and I remember somebody discussing about GPU in KVM which is possible by using the extraconfig feature while deploying VM (the only limitation is on KVM you cannot share one GPU across VMs; however if your server has multiple GPUs you can assign them to one or more VMs).
