I have successfully completed `NVIDIA Tesla P100` Grid Setup on the `vSphere` Host Server with `VMware ESXI 6.7`.While trying to add `PCI` devices in the VM, the option to choose PCI devices is shown as in the `“Add Other Hardware”` setting in `“Virtual Hardware"`. Please refer the screenshot below.
I can add PCI devices when NVIDIA is used as `Direct I/O passthrough`, but when I use `NVIDIA shared passthrough`, PCI device is shown as disabled. As, I need to share the GPU, I’m forced to use NVIDIA shared passthrough.
`nvidia-smi` is as follows
NVIDIA-SMI 410.91 Driver Version: 410.91 CUDA Version: N/A
| GPU Name Persistence-M| Bus-Id Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr. ECC |
| Fan Temp Perf Pwr:Usage/Cap| Memory-Usage | GPU-Util Compute M. |
|===============================+======================+======================|

| N/A 31C P0 26W / 250W | 31MiB / 12287MiB | 0% Default |
+-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
The result of `#esxcli graphics host get` is as follows.
Default Graphics Type: SharedPassthru
Shared Passthru Assignment Policy: Performance
Kindly help me to enable the PCI at NVIDA Tesla P 100 in shared pass through mode.
