BlueField-2 direct access to A100

[gohar94]

I have a BlueField-2 and an A100 (not the converged accelerator). I would like to access the GPU directly from the ARM core in the BF2. I tried following instructions from here: https://docs.nvidia.com/networking/display/bluefielddpuosv380/deploying+nvidia+converged+accelerator and also the discussion thread: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/bluefield-2-in-bluefield-x-mode-does-not-see-a100-gpu/242305
It seems that even after following the instructions, I am unable to see the GPU in the BF-2 ARM (and I still continue to see it in the host) when I do lspci.
Could someone please guide how to change the ownership such that the ARM is able to access the GPU directly without the host CPU?
Thanks.

Hi, I'm facing the same problem.

Did you ever manage to get this working? Any updates would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @gohar94 I don't know the answer to your question. As this is not related to the gpu-operator, I am closing this issue. I would advise raising your question in the NVIDIA developer forum (I do not know a better place to redirect you to).
