Prerequisites | NVIDIA BioNeMo NIM Documentation

Supported Hardware

The ProteinMPNN NIM is configured to run on a single GPU. The minimum GPU memory requirement for the ProteinMPNN NIM is 3GB. The ProteinMPNN NIM should run on any NVIDIA GPU that meets this minimum hardware requirement and has compute capability >7.0. The ProteinMPNN NIM also requires at least 10GB of free hard drive space.

Software Prerequisites

Begin with Docker-supported operating system
Install Docker - minimum version: 23.0.1
Install NVIDIA Drivers - minimum version: 535
Install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit - minimum version: 1.13.5
Verify your container runtime supports NVIDIA GPUs by running

docker run --rm --runtime=nvidia --gpus all ubuntu nvidia-smi
