How do I get webGL on the browser to call the L4 graphics card on the server for acceleration，operating system is windows server 2019

I am not sure what exact use-case you are describing?

If you run WebGL apps in a browser on the physical machine with the L4 GPU, it will automatically use the GPU for acceleration unless you override the OpenGL libraries used by the browser.

But if you mean that you want to use the GPU with a client connecting to the server, then that is not possible without virtualization and vGPU services.

I have 4 L4 graphics cards on my server, I installed Windows server 2019 and Google Chrome on the server, I want to call the graphics card in Google Chrome to speed up the rendering of graphics in the browser, but it seems that it can not be achieved

Is it possible to use the first method you mentioned

You need to check in either the Windows settings or in the NVIDIA control panel if for some reason Chrome or Windows in general is using the GPU or not.

It is also possible to check from within Chrome if it uses HW acceleration or not.

Make sure that both the Windows and the Chrome settings are using HW acceleration and the GPU, then WebGL will also use the GPU.

Thanks.

Thank you very much for your reply.
Graphics card control panel no 3D Settings, no GPU in Task Manager, no L4 GPU found in graphics Settings, L4 graphics card cannot accelerate Google Browser.

Did you install NVIDIA GPU drivers?

Go to Official Drivers | NVIDIA and chose Data Center drivers for the L4, it should be version 538.15
