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 apt update
    
  2. Install nv-disk-encrypt.

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

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

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

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

    sudo reboot
    

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