Installing the Software#

Use the package manager to install the nv-disk-encrypt package and, optionally, the TPM2 tools package, and reboot the system. You need the TPM tools package if you plan to use the TPM2 to store security keys.

  1. Update the packages.

    sudo dnf update
    
  2. Install nv-disk-encrypt.

    sudo dnf install -y nv-disk-encrypt
    
  3. (Optional) Install the TPM tools package.

    • For DGX A100, DGX A800, DGX Station A100, or DGX H100/H200/B200, install the tpm2-tools package.

    sudo dnf install -y tpm2-tools
    
    • For DGX-2, install the tpm-tools package.

    sudo dnf install -y tpm-tools
    
  4. Reboot.

    sudo reboot
    

If you plan to use TPM2, enable it. Refer to Configuring Trusted Computing for more information.
