Dear all,
I am evaluating a MI210 board for test environment of my company's R&D.
Our goal is to partition the MI210 (the Physical Function as I learned) in 8 or 16 Virtual Functions using the SR-IOV, then mapping them to the Virtual Machines.
I downloaded and installed the latest driver available of VMware 8, set all the BIOS settings as described in the very few docs available online, but cannot have more than 1 virtual function.
The VIB module is configured with the command:
esxcfg-module -s "GPU0=8 GPU1=8 MxGPUi=0" amdgpuv
In the boot log of esxi host I always found the following:
2024-10-14T18:31:36.843Z cpu101:2098277)amdgpuv_log: amdgpuv_find_conf:199: [amdgpuv]: Find conf by attach num 0

How can I enable the vfs ?
Thank you and best regards,
Marco Menichetti.
