The Horizon Client installer generates the following errors for Multimedia Redirection:
Adding the following symlinks made the failure message go away. I’m wondering though if the packages get updated in the repositories whether this will break the Multimedia Redirection (MMR). I guess I’ll notice some day.
Update (2019/12/20): Today I updated from version 5.2 to 5.3 and ran into the same issue again. I noticed that there are symbolic links present but that they linked to the old versions. After updating the symbolic links the installer was happy again.
There are a couple of steps which need to be taken to configure the Tesla M60 cards with NVIDIA GRID VGPU in a vSphere / Horizon environment. I have listed them here quick and dirty. They are an extract of the NVIDIA Virtual GPU Software User Guide.
Run the nvidia-smi command to verify the correct communictation with the device
Configuring Suspend and Resume for VMware vSphere
esxcli system module parameters set -m nvidia -p “NVreg_RegistryDwords=RMEnableVgpuMigration=1”
Reboot the host
Confirm that suspend and resume is configured
dmesg | grep NVRM
Check that the default graphics type is set to shared direct
If the graphics type were not set to shared direct, execute the following commands to stop and start the xorg and nv-hostengine services
/etc/init.d/xorg stop
nv-hostengine -t
nv-hostengine -d
/etc/init.d/xorg start
On the VM / Parent VM:
Configure the VM, beware that once the vGPU is configured that the console of the VM will not be visible/accessible through the vSphere Client. An alternate access method should already be foreseen
Edit the VM configuration to add a shared pci device, verify that NVIDIA GRID vGPU is selected
