VR2R-0265

① SA Source

Context Before

Essentially, this means ConnectX-8 has two hosts, Grace CPU and B300 GPU. This improves latency in the backend network. However, for VR NVL72, the direct connection between Rubin GPU and ConnectX-9 is reverted back to the same design as GB200, as Rubin does not have PCIe bandwidth for two ConnectX-9.

Evidence

Rubin connects to Vera via C2C link, then Vera will connect to ConnectX-9 via PCIe6 lanes.

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

Rubin 先透過 C2C link 連到 Vera,再由 Vera 透過 PCIe6 lanes 連到 ConnectX-9。
