Changing the vGPU type for physical GPUs

After enabling vGPU for the compute cluster, you can change the vGPU type specified for a physical GPU, if necessary.

Prerequisites

• The compute cluster is reconfigured for vGPU support, as described in Enabling PCI passthrough and vGPU support.
• Ensure that the compute cluster has no virtual machines with the current vGPU type.

To change the vGPU type for a physical GPU

1. Modify the configuration file. For example, replace nvidia-224 with nvidia-228 in the vgpu_type field:

   - device_type: pgpu
     device: "0000:01:00.0"
     vgpu_type: nvidia-228

2. Pass the configuration file to the vinfra service compute set command. For example:

   # vinfra service compute set --pci-passthrough-config config.yaml

3. Reboot the node with the physical GPU to apply changes:

   # reboot
