| == Preparation of a VM running CentOS7 == <!--T:5-->
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:24-->
| |
| Once the VM is available, make sure to update the OS to the latest available software, including the kernel. Then reboot the VM to have the latest kernel running.
| |
| <pre>
| |
| [root@centos7]# yum -y update && reboot
| |
| </pre>
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:25-->
| |
| Since the proprietary NVIDIA drivers need to be compiled against the running kernel, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Kernel_Module_Support DKMS package] is required from the [https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm EPEL repository].
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:26-->
| |
| <pre>
| |
| [root@centos7]# yum -y install epel-release
| |
| </pre>
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:27-->
| |
| Install the <b>Arbutus Cloud</b> [http://repo.arbutus.cloud.computecanada.ca/pulp/repos/centos/arbutus-cloud-vgpu-repo.el7.noarch.rpm repository].
| |
| This also installs the public key the packages are signed with, to ensure their authenticity.
| |
| These drivers and user-space tools are carefully tested against the infrastructure before they are made available.
| |
| <pre>
| |
| [root@centos7]# yum -y install http://repo.arbutus.cloud.computecanada.ca/pulp/repos/centos/7/x86_64/Packages/a/arbutus-cloud-vgpu-repo-1.1-1.el7.noarch.rpm
| |
| </pre>
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:28-->
| |
| The last step is to install the <b>NVIDIA vGPU packages</b>.
| |
| The kernel module package <code>nvidia-vgpu-kmod</code> will take a few minutes as it compiles the required kernel modules in the background.
| |
| <pre>
| |
| [root@centos7]# yum -y install nvidia-vgpu-kmod nvidia-vgpu-gridd nvidia-vgpu-tools
| |
| </pre>
| |
|
| |
| <!--T:29-->
| |
| If your installation was successful, the vGPU will be accessible and licensed.
| |
| Test this by running <code>nvidia-smi</code>:
| |
| <pre>
| |
| [root@centos7]# nvidia-smi
