Sorry, I’m not sure I follow. So right now, my XCP-NG hypervisor detects 8 GPU 
cards (Tesla K80). I added a compute offering with passthrough as vgpuType and 
I was able to successfully create an instance and passthrough 1 gpu. I was able 
to validate this as well in the guest VM. I was actually hoping that in the 
createServiceOffering API that there’s a GPU count (just like cpu count) so 
whenever I use that compute offering it will passthrough that no. of GPU count 
in the guest VM.

Thanks,
Irvin
