Intel Volume Management Device Nvme Raid Controller Driver

Intel Volume Management Device When 2.5' U.2 NVMe SSDs first started showing up in datacenters, they revealed a widespread immaturity of platform support for features like PCIe hotplug. Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) is an enterprise, hybrid RAID solution, specifically designed for NVMe. SSDs connected directly to the CPU. Intel® VROC is made possible by the new CPU feature Intel® Volume Management Device, Intel® VMD, a new hardware architecture on Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors. Go to Advanced / PCI Configuration / UEFI Option ROM Control menu. Scroll down and select Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU. Select All Intel VMD Controllers and select Create RAID Volume as shown below: For more information, refer to the How to configure Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) video. Cause & More Information. Intel VMD is also widely supported in the industry, VMware, for instance, supports the Intel VMD NVMe driver natively in VMware ESXi 6.7 release which includes support for managing NVMe SSDs in vSAN. Intel VROC builds on Intel VMD, bringing NVMe SSD RAID to the picture. Intel VMD-enabled NVMe driver is installed. Intel VMD LED management command line tool is installed on the following VMware. ESXi operating system versions: 6.5 & 6.7 Note: If using VMware. ESXi. 6.7, and replacing the Intel VMD-enabled NVMe inbox driver with the async Intel VMD-enabled NVMe driver v. 1.4 or newer, the inbox VMware LSU.

Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is asecondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports,and devices attached to them, to be removed from the defaultPCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This providesmore bus resources than are otherwise possible with asingle domain. If you know your system provides one of these andhas devices attached to it, say Y; if you are not sure, say N.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: themodule will be called vmd.
