GPU Configuration Guide for Lenovo ThinkAgile MX Solutions

Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) virtualization technologies enable GPU acceleration in a virtualized environment, typically within virtual machines. If a workload is virtualized with Hyper-V, then graphics virtualization can be employed in order to provide GPU acceleration from the physical GPU to the virtualized apps or services. Since Azure Stack HCI uses Hyper-V for workload virtualization, the above is true for all Lenovo ThinkAgile MX solutions, whether running a Windows Server or Azure Stack HCI operating system.

This document provides instructions and examples to configure GPUs for use by these operating systems. We include information for installing GPU device drivers, configuring Windows Admin Center to manage GPUs, creating GPU Pools, and assigning virtual machines to GPUs in a pool.
