See: https://issues.infn.it/jira/browse/PDCL-1094 for instructions followed to configure cld-dfa-gpu-01

Here below some links about GPU support at CERN and in EGI Grid and Cloud:

• Introducing GPUs to the CERN Cloud

• Talk and submitted article for ISCG-2017 about EGI accelerated platform

• IISAS web page for Accelerated Computing in EGI FedCloud

Under menu “Supports” you can find several guides for users and site admins, e.g. “AC for site admins“ explains how to configure a compute node equipped with GPUs to enable PCI passthrough virtualisation.

The above guides are inspired by:

• PCI-passthrough in OpenStack official documentation

• Setup GPU Passthrough in OpenStack (Liberty) with Tesla K80

Other interesting links are:

• Talk at Barcelona Summit (focusing on Intel GPUs)

OpenStack projects supporting accelerated computing:

• NOMAD
• CYBORG
