NVIDIA vGPU technology allows a single physical GPU to be partitioned into multiple , which can then be assigned to different virtual machines (VMs). Traditionally, this requires a "supported" card (e.g., Tesla M60, P40, A100). The vgpu-unlock-rs tool works by:
Before you copy-paste the commands above, understand the risks.
vGPUs offer several benefits, including: vgpu-unlock-rs
While support evolves, the tool primarily targets architectures where NVIDIA did not enforce hardware-level blocks:
Edit the config file (create /etc/vgpu_unlock/config.toml ): NVIDIA vGPU technology allows a single physical GPU
You should see types like nvidia-46 (A10-2Q: 2GB vRAM, 2 displays). Attach this to your VM via the Proxmox GUI or CLI.
NVIDIA says no.
Run 4 Windows 11 VMs simultaneously on a single RTX 3090 (24GB VRAM). Each gets a 6GB slice. Perfect for a small office or a family of gamers using Moonlight/Sunshine.
: You must obtain the official NVIDIA GRID/vGPU drivers (often requiring an Enterprise/Evaluation account ). Run 4 Windows 11 VMs simultaneously on a
: Even with the unlock, guest VMs typically still require a connection to an NVIDIA License Server to unlock full performance. Without a license, frame rates may be severely capped (e.g., 3 FPS or limited resolution).
