Hi, we have a View 6.2 deployment with GRID K1 cards in our Dell R720 hosts. Previously using vSGA, however we want to test the new vGPU technology. Have split one host off into it's own cluster and trying to get the vGPU vib installed instead of the vSGA. Following the vGPU deployment guide PDF, and it says to run vmkload_mod -u nvidia, however when I do this, I get the message in the title of this post "vmkload_mod: Can not remove module nvidia: module symbols in use".
If I try to run excli software vib remove,
esxcli software vib remove -n "NVIDIA-VMware_ESXi_6.0_Host_Driver"
it fails with the following:
[InstallationError]
Error in running rm /tardisks/NVIDIA_V.v00:
Return code: 1
Output: rm: can't remove '/tardisks/NVIDIA_V.v00': Device or resource busy
It is not safe to continue. Please reboot the host immediately to discard the unfinished update.
So, can anyone advise how to get the vmkload command to work to remove the nvidia module so I can uninstall the host driver and install the vgpu driver?
