寻找P100的驱动程序在ESX 6.5中运行tensorflow

你好
我之前没有和TensorFlow做过任何工作，所以我可能会误解你的要求......
你有几个不同的驱动程序选项......
1是在Passthrough模式下使用它，这样一个VM就可以使用整个P100。
如果这样使用，您只需要标准的Linux P100驱动程序，因为ESXi不需要安装驱动程序。
使用此方法，没有驱动程序许可成本，您可以在同一VM中使用多个P100来提高性能。
2是虚拟化P100并在多个VM之间共享它。
像这样使用时，ESXi和VM都需要安装驱动程序。
最新的GRID 5驱动程序应该支持这一点。
此处涉及额外的许可成本，并且每个VM只能有一个vGPU，因此也存在性能限制。
我不知道VMware在上面的评论中提到的驱动程序，因为P100已经与ESXi一起使用。
只是出于兴趣，您打算在服务器/系统中使用多少个P100？
问候

Hi

I’ve not done any work with TensorFlow before, so I may be misunderstanding what you’re asking ...

You have a couple of different driver options ...

1 is to use it in Passthrough mode so that a single VM can use the entire P100. When used like this, you just need the standard Linux P100 driver, as ESXi won’t need a driver installed. With this method, there are no driver licensing costs and you can use multiple P100s within the same VM to enhance performance.

2 is to virtualise the P100 and share it between multiple VMs. When used like this, both ESXi and the VMs will need drivers installed. The latest GRID 5 drivers should support this. There are additional licensing costs involved here, and you can only have a single vGPU per VM, so there are performance limitations to be aware of as well.

I don't know what driver VMware are referring to in your comment above, as the P100 already works with ESXi.

Just out of interest, how many P100s are you planning to use in the server / system?

嗨，
我也有兴趣在这里更好地理解用例。
你想用vGPU运行P100还是只是用GPU Passthrough“虚拟”运行它？

Hi,

I would also be interested in better understanding the use case here. Do you want to run P100 with vGPU or is it just to run it "virtual" with GPU Passthrough?
