NVIDIA vGPU Management in ESXi?

Hi

This has bugged me since VMware started supporting GPUs a couple of years back, and I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but ... With the latest version of the VMware 6.5 components, is anyone aware of some form of GPU / vGPU management? There appears to be no way to manage GPU placement or allocation in a logical, scale-able way?

Looking at the alternative, XenServer, this has some really nice, easy to use and understand GPU management. It is visually obvious what the configuration is and how to change it if needed. I can configure the GPU profiles to use, either on a per GPU, per Card, per Host or per Resource Pool basis, and everything in-between, it is extremely granular, well thought out and generally, very good. Yet with ESXi, I see nothing of the sort, and in fact quite the opposite. There just appears to be absolutely no way to manage the GPU?

I'd be interested in how others are doing this, so if someone could let me know how they currently do this, it would be appreciated

Regards
