Hello -
Wondering if anyone has any insight or ideas here... essentially we want to use HP Remote Graphics Software to connect to virtual desktops running on ESXi with a shared virtual GPU being passed through to the guests for AutoCAD. Overall this works - however when we set the VDI resolution to say 4k - and then connect the client PCs - it will scale across the 2 monitors and lose resolution. What I have read is if we can connect a second "monitor"/display head to the virtual desktop - we might be able to get around the resolution issue. The vGPU can handle 2 "display heads" according to nVidia documentation - but I can not for the life of me figure out how to add one. Apparently HP had a special tool called "force edids" but I can not find anything out about it.
Host
ESXi Enterprise Plus 6.7.0 (Build 9484548)
vCenter Standard 6.7 (Build 8170087)
nVidia Tesla P40 GPU (Shared - profile
Guests
Windows 10 1809 (Build 17763.348)
vGPU Profile: P40-1Q
nVidia Driver: 412.16
Client PCs
2x 1440p Monitors (2560x1440)
Any help or ideas would be appreciated! We also are still on a trial license for HP RGS - so if you have any other softwares to check out would love to hear.
Thanks
