Trying to set up GPU server to run our app on VM. The GPU server has RHEL 8.8.
I’m having problem with getting Vulkan is not working in the GPU server

libGLX_nvidia.so.0 file is valid path and file.
vulkaninfo output :
ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : vkCreateInstance: Found no drivers!
Cannot create Vulkan instance.
This problem is often caused by a faulty installation of the Vulkan driver or attempting to use a GPU that does not support Vulkan.
ERROR at /xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/vulkan/1.3.260.0/source/Vulkan-Tools/vulkaninfo/vulkaninfo.h:688:vkCreateInstance failed with ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER
I confirmed that vulkan operates normally in the this configuration(RHEL8.6, A100-PCIe-80GB, NVIDIA-515-65.01, vulkan 1.2.xxx) in another virtual machine. Currently the GPU cannot use A100-PCIe-80GB and must use A100-SXM4-80GB.
Does A100-SXM4-80GB support vulkan in a virtual environment?
If supported, which version of Nvidia drivers and vulkan should I use?
