The Azure Arc tool can be found under the new Configuration grouping in the Cluster Manager Tools bar. Azure Stack HCI registration and Arc-enabled servers now have a dedicated section in the new Azure Arc tool to easily view registration and configuration status, and to troubleshoot when necessary. To learn more about GPU support on Azure Stack HCI, read our announcement blog post or documentation.Įnsuring that your Azure Stack HCI cluster is registered and Arc-enabled is critical to keeping your cluster fully functional and ready to use Azure Arc capabilities, such as Azure Monitor and Azure Arc VM management. From there, you can add, remove, or view the GPU resources that are allocated to the VM. Select a VM from the Virtual Machines tool in Cluster Manager and then select the 'GPUs' tab. Once GPU partitioning has been enabled, you can use WAC to manage the allocation of GPU resources to VMs. To use GPU partitioning with Windows Admin Center, you must first update to the latest version of WAC and ensure version 2.8.0 of the GPU extension is installed. This sharing is accomplished through the use of the Single Root IO Virtualization (SR-IOV) interface, which provides a hardware-backed security boundary with predictable performance for each VM. The GPU partitioning tool is now in preview! GPU partitioning enables the sharing of a physical GPU device with multiple virtual machines (VMs) in order to lower the total cost of ownership for GPU devices. In addition to the improvements made to the Azure Stack HCI cluster management experience, WAC v2211 includes platform and extension updates.

You can find the 2211 update in the Updates section of Windows Admin Center settings. We've also made improvements to existing features including the Volumes tool, Software Defined Networking tools and Settings search. Windows Admin Center (WAC) version 2211 is now generally available! In this release, we've added new tools for Azure Stack HCI such as the GPU partitioning tool, Azure Arc tool, and a new Cluster properties page.
