Hello,
Is it possible/supported to integrate C-240M3 with NVIDIA cards in a UCS Fabric Interconnect environment? I guess UCS Service Profiles don't know about NVIDIA cards, so I'm wondering how will the hypervisor know about its existence.
Thanks a lot,

Have a look at

At a high level.
edit: I noticed your question is specific to integration with UCSM. For UCSM it will just be seen as s PCIe device. Just remember to have latest greatest on your C240 (1.5.4+)

So (provided we have last firmware) you can confirm that the scenario won't pose any problems or concerns? It will simply work as if it was a standalone server?
Thanks

In essence UCSM should see them as a PCI card it cannot automatically update or apply GPU service profiles to. That's meant as an interim step, AFAIU.
That being said, I would still check this out with your SE, to see how you will be deploying it and what are the limitations, guidelines.
