XenServer GPU Passthrough Issues

[Nikolithebear]

Hey all,

 

I'm trying to build a citrix xenserver and have a gpu passed through to a vm to test some configurations for a project.  I have Vt-d enabled on the server however every time I try to start the virtual machine with the GPU passed through it throws an error saying that the server does not have VT-d enabled.  Why is this?  Specs bellow:

 

4790k

Asus z97 k(?)

32gb RAM

1tb hdd

gpu1: gt210

gpu2: gtx 750ti

What OS? Does the kernel have vt-d enabled? Assuming linux you'll need the required kernel modules enabled.

As I said, Citrix XenServer. Which is Linux 4.4 I think.
