[DGX-1, DGX-2]: DGCM Update Error#

Issue#

When attempting to update DCGM, the following error message may be displayed: There was an internal error during the test: 'Couldn't find the ubergemm executable which is required; the install may have failed.'

Explanation#

This is a known issue and is anticipated to be fixed in the next release.

[DGX-1, DGX-2]: nysys fails to launch#

Issue#

When attempting to install a different package version from the CUDA networking repository, nsys will not launch.

More specifically, when installing CUDA Toolkit there are some nsight-systems packages with different versions and the most recent nsight-systems-2022.1.3-2022.1.3.3_1c7b5f7-0.x86_64.rpm will be installed by default.

Workaround#

Download and install this package from CUDA repo, which resolves the path to fix the issue:

$ wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel8/x86_64/nsight-systems-2021.3.2-2021.3.2.4_027534f-0.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo dnf install ./nsight-systems-2021.3.2-2021.3.2.4_027534f-0.x86_64.rpm

[DGX-1, DGX-2]: nvsm dump health Does not Generate sosreport#

Issue#

[Fixed in EL8-21.08]

After running nvsm dump health, the log file reports

INFO: Could not find sosreport output file

Analysis of the log files reveals that information is missing for components that are installed on the system; such as InfiniBand cards.

Explanation#

The sosreport is not getting collected. This will be resolved in a later software release.

[DGX-2]: No Rebuild Function for RAID 0 if Volume is not md1#

Issue#

[Fixed in EL8-21.08]

If the RAID 0 volumes are a designation other than md1, such as md128, then there is no Rebuild under Target.

Example:

$ nvsm show /systems/localhost/storage/volumes/md128
Properties:
    CapacityBytes = 61462699992678
    Encrypted = False
    Id = md128
    Drives = [ nvme10n1, nvme11n1, nvme12n1, nvme13n1, nvme14n1, nvme15n1, nvme16n1, nvme17n1, nvme2n1, nvme3n1, nvme4n1, nvme5n1, nvme6n1, nvme7n1, nvme8n1, nvme9n1 ]
    Name = md128
    Status_Health = OK
    Status_State = Enabled
    VolumeType = RAID-0
Targets:
    encryption
Verbs:
    cd
    show

Explanation#

This occurs if the drives are not configured in the default configuration of two OS drives in a RAID 1 configuration and storage drives used for caching in a RAID 0 configuration. The nvsm rebuild command does not support non-standard drive configurations.

[DGX-2]: Storage Alerts Persist from Previous RAID Configuration#

Issue#

[fixed with EL8-21.08] After switching to a custom drive configuration, such as by adding or removing storage drives, any NVSM storage alerts from the previous configuration will still be reported even though the current drive status is healthy.

For example, alerts can appear for md0 even though the current RAID drive name is md125 and healthy.

Explanation#

To configure NVSM to support custom drive partitioning, perform the following.

  1. Edit /etc/nvsm/nvsm.config and set the “use_standard_config_storage “ parameter to false.

    "use_standard_config_storage":false
    
  2. Remove the NVSM database.

    $ sudo rm /var/lib/nvsm/sqlite/nvsm.db
    
  3. Restart NVSM.

    $ systemctl restart nvsm
