This is 1st generation VCA, and there are at least two newer versions. There is no onboard primary storage. Storage needs to be mounted using host block device or using NFS share. Networking is done using a software bridge on the host os.
"One of the key use cases for the Intel VCA was as a Quick Sync video transcoding platform. Each CPU’s GT3e GPU had dedicated video transcoding engines, so organizations such as broadcasters could quickly build transcoding farms even in amazingly dense platforms." - Patrick Kennedy ServeTheHome
Each VCA node has the option to toggle between 2 onboard bios partitions which includes a locked factory gold image and a user modifiable image. Intel documentation states that the corresponding jumpers on the edge of the card must be changed in sets of 3 corresponding with the 3 nodes on the card. If all 3 jumpers are used then the user modifiable image is selected otherwise the factory gold image is booted.
The cards boot the user designated image which contains the os and the corresponding Intel software inside the OS for networking and media sdk suite. Existing boot images can be found on Intel's site to use for testing and production workloads. Images are then loaded by the VCA from either a host block device(image/disk) or from an NFS share. Communication with the VCA nodes will then be over the user defined networking scheme using ssh.
