Context Before
Source: Nvidia VR NVL72 BoM and Power Budget Model ↗
Firstly, the connection between the GPU and the ConnectX NICs evolved from GB200 to GB300 then to Vera Rubin. For GB200, the GPU does not have direct access to the ConnectX-7. Instead, B200 connects to Grace CPU via C2C connection then the Grace CPU talks to the ConnectX-7 over PCIe 5. For GB300, Nvidia introduced NIC direct to ConnectX-8, which allows the B300 GPU to communicate directly with the ConnectX-8 NIC without going through the Grace CPU.
Evidence
Essentially, this means ConnectX-8 has two hosts, Grace CPU and B300 GPU
Context After
Secondly, the local NVMe storage for Rubin has been moved to a different location from that of NVMe storage in Grace Blackwell. Previously, local NVMe storage was managed by BlueField-3. For VR NVL72, the local NVMe storage is physically on the Orchid module managed by the ConnectX-9.
② Atomic Claim
ConnectX-8 的另一個 host 是 B300 GPU。
