Question and installation vmware and vmware Esxi

[ricky89]

Hello

I would like to install on my computer vmware pro workstation including vsphere Esxi to install nvidia vGPU virtual video cards.

In my PC I use 32gb of ram ddr4 a processor intel quad core 2.0 GHZ and 8 threads with support set instructions Vt-x and Vt-d and virtualization support.

I would like to use these powerful vgpu cloud dell nvidia I saw on the official site gives you the trial trial for 90 days I can try? does it work correctly in my computer of this configuration ?.

Instead in the laptop goes well? just having more ram is a good connection? I belong to the fiber and it's very good.

is it possible to install two vGPU nvidia grid?

If you have advice or maybe PDF guides how to install step by step everything you need thank you.

Thank you in advance and I await your answers.

What you see on VMworld and similar (Youtube)....

- ESXi with nvidia M10 or similar

- Nvidia Grid comes with a 90 day evaluation, otherwise a $$ license is needed which is based on FlexLM

- A VM which use the M10 dedicated or in a shared vGPU setup

- A VM which is part of a Horizon VDI environment

- Youre connected to this VM via a Tera2 (PCoIP) Client or FatClient/Client which runs the Horizion Client. Using the VMware Blast Extreme protokoll is also a solution. No, RDP does not work.

As you can see ... VMware Workstation is not part of the game.

There are some home projekts to convert a ESXi Host into a Workstation. But again... thats not what you have seen.

Here is a good thread about using a typical affordable game card with passthrough to ESXi:

Thanks for your answer but if my pc does not have a dedicated video card using the integrated one can I install a Grid vgpu?

and exploit that installed vgpu?
