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 -----Original Message----- From: Vijay Ramadoss [mailto:vramad...@nvidia.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2014 11:03 AM To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: RE: Cloudstack/Xenserver/GPU support 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.
