Citrix xe vgpu question *help!*

[andydis]

Hello Everyone,

 

counting down the weeks yet? , my tree is up already!

 

we recently installed citrix in our environment and to improve performance i wanted to assign a physcial or virtual graphics card to the enviroment.

 

However i have read all the how-to's and it seems when i get to the command xe-vpgu it says the command doesn't exist, in fact doing a xe help shows it doesn't , whats going on?

 

 

i did a xe help and it shows the below

 

Usage: xe [-s server] [-pw passwd] [-p port] [-u user] [-pwf password-file]

[command specific arguments]

 

To get help on a specific command: xe help

To get a full listing of commands: xe help --all

I can only think that Citrix XenServer Platinum Licensing may be required to enable GPU-Pass through in XenServer? and we only have the enterprise,

is thats right then what about assigning 1 physcial GPU to a virtual machine? , i have tried but after the driver installs it says there was a problem with the hardware.

 

any thoughts?
