Isaac sim on a virtual machine

hello, I have a redhat8 OS on a HPE Gen10 server.
I Have 4 nvidia Quadro RTX 6000
And I need to install and use Isaac sdk and Isaac Sim with Omniverse.

I already try something :

Creating a virtual machine with virt-manager (qemu-kvm) ubuntu 18.04 guest OS, and I can’t install Isaac sim.
I tried different driver 470.86/470.94/495/510 and some of this driver “works” but some driver, I can boot or I have black screen, or I have /dev/sda1/ clean : xxxxxx/xxxxx files , xxxxxx/xxxxxx blocks.

Creating a virtual machine with virt-manager (qemu-kvm) ubuntu 20.04 guest OS, and I can’t install Isaac sim.
same problem, black screen…

but in Ubuntu 18.04 with 470.94 driver.
I can partialy install isaac sim, the installation crash. I can’t launch Isaac sim, I don’t have launcher in Omniverse.
BUT I can launch isaac sim in headless.websocket.sh and i can launch some isaac example simulation with the GUI, but not with launching python file like :
./python standalone_example/api/omni.isaac.franka/follow.target don’t work.

someone have tried to install Isaac Sim with a virtual machine ?
have someone had an other idea or a solution ?
or i have to install ubuntu 18.04 native ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi, we recommend running natively or headless in a container with Websocket livestreaming.

Desktop VM could be possible with a vGPU license or GPU passthrough but you may still run into issues.
