PCIe Device

On the host Hardware Device page, select the PCIe Device tab to view and manage the PCIe devices for that host.

You can enable passthrough functionality for PCIe devices on the host. Passthrough devices provide an effective way to use resources and improve environment performance.

  • Passthrough PCI Devices: Displays PCIe devices with passthrough functionality enabled, available for virtual machine use.
  • All PCI Devices: Displays all PCIe devices detected on the host. You can switch devices with a Configurable passthrough state to passthrough devices.
  • Before switching a PCIe device to passthrough, ensure that IOMMU is enabled on the host and that the IOMMU readiness state is available.
  • If a PCIe device is already loaded by a virtual machine, it cannot be switched to passthrough. Please unload the virtual machine before retrying.
