Description

when there are many virtual machines installed on the physical host machine. These virtual machines use GPU through graphics card pass-through . I don’t want to install dcgm-exporter on each virtual machine; if I install dcgm-exporter on the host machine, can it capture all GPU metrics of virtual machine? if not，how can i do to solve it？

best wishes
