Hi Daniel,

Thank you so much for your help. That link at the end with the Group Policy Settings is what solved my issue!

Kind Regards,

Hello Daniel Bayerdorffer,

Long story briefly explained on the example of an AMD server with NVIDIA 
graphics card (on Proxmox 6.4 / 7):

1. activate IOMMU, deactivate framebuffer

root at assg25:~# cat /etc/kernel/cmdline
root=ZFS=rpool/ROOT/pve-1 boot=zfs amd_iommu=on iommu=pt video=efifb:off
root at assg25:~#
root at assg25:~# update-initramfs -u -k all

2. deactivate (nativ) Kerneldrivers

root at assg25:~# cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
blacklist radeon
blacklist nouveau
blacklist nvidia
blacklist nvidiafb
blacklist snd_hda_intel
root at assg25:~#

3. load vfio drivers

root at assg25:~# cat /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

vfio
vfio_iommu_type1
vfio_pci
vfio_virqfd

# EOF
root at assg25:~#

4. search for the appropriate graphics card entry

root at assg25:~#
root at assg25:~# lspci -v > /tmp/GPU_INFO
root at assg25:~#
root at assg25:~# grep -A 30 "Quadro P1000" /tmp/GPU_INFO

root at assg25:~# lspci -n -s 27:00
27:00.0 0300: 10de:1cb1 (rev a1)
27:00.1 0403: 10de:0fb9 (rev a1)
root at assg25:~#

5. configure vfio.conf

root at assg25:~# cat /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf
options vfio-pci ids=10de:1cb1,10de:0fb9 disable_vga=1
root at assg25:~#

6. host reboot

sync
update-initramfs -u -k all
proxmox-boot-tool refresh
sync; reboot

7. create a windows vm in ovmf (uefi) mode, machine type: pc-q35-5.2, 
cpu with hidden and hv-vendor-id flag and gpu (hostpci) passthrough

root at assg25:/etc/pve/qemu-server# cat 216.conf
#
#term41gpu
#
#GPU - PCIe 27%3A00
#
agent: 1,type=virtio
balloon: 0
bios: ovmf
boot: order=virtio0;net0
cores: 12
cpu: host,hidden=1,hv-vendor-id=proxmox
efidisk0: local-zfs:vm-216-disk-1,size=1M
hostpci0: 27:00,pcie=1
machine: pc-q35-5.2
memory: 73728
name: term41gpu
net0: virtio=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX,bridge=vmbr107,firewall=1
numa: 1
ostype: win10
scsihw: virtio-scsi-single
smbios1: uuid=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
sockets: 2
startup: order=116
virtio0: local-zfs:vm-216-disk-0,iothread=1,size=256G
vmgenid: XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
root at assg25:/etc/pve/qemu-server#

8. install the windows server drivers from nvidia

https://www.nvidia.de/Download/driverResults.aspx/176988/de

9. activate the necessary RemoteFX settings using the active-directory 
group policies (or the local ones)
