Hi, my name is Sanjib. How may I help you?
[01:19:40 AM] toseef raja: Hi Sabjib
[01:19:59 AM] toseef raja: i have issue of enabling K10 Tesla on Dell R720 Server
[01:20:23 AM] toseef raja: its showing nothing in dxdiag
[01:20:51 AM] toseef raja: for the GPU
[01:21:04 AM] Sanjib: Which operating system are you using in this Server machine?
[01:21:19 AM] toseef raja: windows 2008 Standard R2
[01:22:20 AM] Sanjib: Since when are you experiencing this issue? Was it working before normally?

[01:23:09 AM] toseef raja: no it never worked for me
[01:23:21 AM] toseef raja: since i unpack the server
[01:23:53 AM] Sanjib: So it was pre-installed with the Dell R720 server? correct?
[01:23:59 AM] toseef raja: yes
[01:26:18 AM] Sanjib: Press Windows+R--> type msinfo32
[01:26:24 AM] 'toseef raja' is currently 'Absent'. Approximately 120 seconds until disconnect.
[01:26:35 AM] Sanjib: Go to components--> display
[01:26:55 AM] 'toseef raja' is currently 'Active'.
[01:28:41 AM] toseef raja: yes its showing Nvidia Tesla K10 G2 8GB
[01:29:25 AM] Sanjib: That means the GPU is getting detected, what is the driver version?
[01:30:44 AM] toseef raja: 9.8.13
[01:32:41 AM] Sanjib: Are you experiencing any issues with it working on applications?
[01:32:56 AM] toseef raja: when i try to goto nvidia control panel
[01:33:05 AM] toseef raja: it gives an error like
[01:33:18 AM] toseef raja: "display is not attached to nvidia GPU"
[01:36:20 AM] Sanjib: Is this the only Graphics card installed in this server?
[01:36:38 AM] toseef raja: the other one is integrated \matrox
[01:39:55 AM] toseef raja: u there
[01:40:45 AM] Sanjib: Yes, I am here.
[01:43:09 AM] Sanjib: Download and save the graphic card driver on the desktop by visiting the page at the following link.

http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/71512/en-us
[01:43:21 AM] Sanjib: Once the download is completed, please perform the following steps:

1.Run the set up.exe file
2.Choose custom installation, and click next.
3.Check all the boxes in the custom install options windows and also check the box which states "Perform clean install"..
4.Restart your computer
[01:43:31 AM] Sanjib: Can you please check if you can install these drivers
[01:43:32 AM] toseef raja: ok
[01:44:06 AM] toseef raja: give me 5 mins
[01:44:25 AM] Sanjib: Ok.
[02:10:51 AM] toseef raja: u there
[02:11:01 AM] toseef raja: u there
[02:11:40 AM] toseef raja: still giving me the same error
[02:12:51 AM] toseef raja: "you are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU "
[02:14:20 AM] Sanjib: Have you installed the drivers?
[02:14:40 AM] toseef raja: yup done already
[02:14:47 AM] toseef raja: still giving the same error
[02:15:31 AM] Sanjib: Which port have you used to connect the monitor to your graphics card?
[02:15:37 AM] toseef raja: VGA
[02:15:50 AM] toseef raja: standard port dat comes with servers
[02:16:41 AM] toseef raja: the error is
[02:16:42 AM] toseef raja: you are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU "
[02:18:17 AM] Sanjib: How many VGA ports are available? Only one or more than that?
[02:21:45 AM] toseef raja: 2 ports
[02:21:54 AM] toseef raja: 1 in back

Are you trying to use the GPU as a video card?  if so, this won't work.  You will need to use the onboard video.   http://www.dell.com/learn/us/en/04/campaigns/poweredge-gpu?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04&preview=true&delphi:gr=true

"Dell does not support local DVI/Display Port connections on Graphics cards. These cards are designed to be used as VDI devices and support virtualized graphics."

What is GPU computing?

GPU computing is the use of a GPU as a coprocessor in tandem with a CPU to accelerate CPU intensive applications typically used in scientific and engineering domains. GPUs are also being used in virtual desktop environments.

The GPU accelerates applications running on the CPU by off-loading some of the compute-intensive and time-consuming portions of the application code. The rest of the application still runs on the CPU. From a user’s perspective, the application may run faster because it’s using the massively parallel processing power of the GPU to boost performance. This is known as “heterogeneous” or “hybrid” computing.

In the 1999–2000 time frame, computer scientists, along with researchers in fields such as medical imaging and electromagnetics, started using GPUs to accelerate a range of scientific applications. This was the advent of the movement called GPGPU or general purpose GPU computing.

A CPU consists of four to sixteen CPU cores, while a GPU consists of hundreds of smaller cores. Together, they operate to crunch through the data in the application. This massively parallel architecture is what gives the GPU its high compute performance. There are a number of GPU-accelerated applications that can provide easy access high-performance computing (HPC).

Hi there,

is there any possibilty that we can share GPUZ memory with the VGA .....???

in our scenario it is NVIDIA GPU + metrox G200er VGA .....please update ASAP

This is what I tried to explain.  The Tesla K10 GPU only provides video in a VM, not to an external monitor.  For external video, you will need to use the built-in Matrox video. 

Regards,

Dear GEOFF P,

Refer me a solution except inducting another costly graphic card , I have to sort it out with the available resources I have mentioned in image.
