Intel NVME SR-IOV support

[MAbdi]

Hello

I am using P3600 Intel NVME. I am wondering whether they support SR-IOV. I am planning to run some performance isolation test on them on a virtualized environment.

That's Great. Could you please let me know, how can I enable it on device? Or do you have any documentation that I can use it to? I am using RedHat Rhel 7.1 and virt-manager.

Hi ManiaA,

We would like to inform you that there is no information how to set the SR-IOV since it is something you set up from the OS. You don't need to enable it from the SSD's site since it is ready for the feature.

We suggest you contact the https://access.redhat.com/community Red Hat* Linux* support community in order to get assistance how to set up SR-IOV in the OS.
