NVIDIA SXM: HGX H200 8-GPU
No NVIDIA AI Enterprise license

We are using KVM on CentOS 9 to partition the GPU for use by either 8 or 16 virtual machines.
The issue we are currently facing is that while the VMs can detect the GPU, they are unable to successfully invoke CUDA.
Would purchasing an NVIDIA AI Enterprise (vGPU) license resolve this issue and allow us to meet our requirements?

Any guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
