The AIE is for AI workloads. So if your are using Nutanix Ai then use the AIE driver. If you want vGPU for (for example) VDI workloads then use the graphics driver.

Does NVIDIA L40S provide C-Profile on Nutanix ?

Thank you for your quick response, so if we will use CUDA toolkit on VMs, from nutanix side which driver should be used ? AIE or Graphics we will not use Nutanix Enterprise Ai so this point is not clear in both document,    so my questions technically  what is the different between the two drive AIE and Graphics and the technical difference between both of them

If you are not using Nutanix AI then you need the graphics drivers.
