After BIOS settings are rightly configured and the GPU driver is installed, some kernel command line options need be added into the "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX" setting of the file, /etc/default/grub. They are "intel_iommu=on i915.max_vfs=31". "intel_iommmu" is for IOMMU and "i915.max_vfs" is for SR-IOV. After you update the grub file, please run the command like "update-grub" to set to kernel image and reboot OS to take effect. You may check the content of /proc/cmdline to confirm that they are rightly set. The command "sudo xpumcli vgpu --addkernelparam" can automatically add these kernel parameters.

CAUTION: we are removing all virtual GPUs on device 0, please make sure all vGPU-assigned virtual machines are shut down.
Please confirm to proceed (y/n) y
All virtual GPUs on the device 0 are removed.
The advanced configurations of the virtual GPU are in the file, /usr/lib/xpum/config/vgpu.conf. You may change your virtual GPU settings according to the created virtual GPU number. For example, the NAME "56c0N16" means the settings for creating 16 vGPU on Flex 170 GPU (Device ID: 0x56c0). Here is the detailed info of the virtual GPU settings.
- VF_CONTEXTS: Number of contexts per virtual GPU, used for KMD-GuC communication
- VF_DOORBELLS: Number of doorbells per virtual GPU, used for KMD-GuC communication
- VF_GGTT: GGTT(Global Graphics Translation Table) size per virtual GPU, used for memory mapping, in bytes
- VGPU_SCHEDULER: virtual GPU Sheduler to set different PF/VF executionQuantum, PF/VF preemptionTimeout and scheduleIfIdle policy. For Intel Data Center Flex GPUs, it has three options to meet various application scenarios: Flexible_30fps_GPUTimeSlicing, Fixed_30fps_GPUTimeSlicing, Flexible_BurstableQoS_GPUTimeSlicing. The default is Flexible_30fps_GPUTimeSlicing if not set or set incorrectly. For Intel Data Center Max GPUs, it only has one effective option: Flexible_BurstableQoS_GPUTimeSlicing. Other settings will not take effect. For implementation details about VGPU_SCHEDULER, please refer to the link: https://github.com/intel/xpumanager/blob/master/core/src/vgpu/vgpu_manager.cpp
- DRIVERS_AUTOPROBE: Determines whether the newly enabled virtual GPUs are immediately bound to a driver, 0 or 1
To automatically change different vGPU schedulers, you may use the command sed as follows:
sed -i "s/VGPU_SCHEDULER=Flexible_30fps_GPUTimeSlicing/VGPU_SCHEDULER=Flexible_BurstableQoS_GPUTimeSlicing/g" /usr/lib/xpum/config/vgpu.conf
- XPU manager (in Host OS Linux) cannot discover and monitor a virtual GPU if it is assigned to an active VM guest or sriov_drivers_autoprobe is set to 0. If only 1 virtual GPU was created, end users may understand virtual GPU utilizations by looking at metrics of PF.
- XPU manager (in Guest OS Windows) can only monitor GPU utilization, other metrics are not available
