Abstract

Disclosed are aspects of memory-aware placement in systems that include graphics processing units (GPUs) that are virtual GPU (vGPU) enabled. Virtual graphics processing unit (vGPU) data is identified for graphics processing units (GPUs). A configured GPU list and an unconfigured GPU list are generated using the GPU data. The configured GPU list specifies configured vGPU profiles for configured GPUs. The unconfigured GPU list specifies a total GPU memory for unconfigured GPUs. A vGPU request is assigned to a vGPU of a GPU. The GPU is a first fit, from the configured GPU list or the unconfigured GPU list that satisfies a GPU memory requirement of the vGPU request.
