Option Description
ESXi 6.0 scp $HOME/NVIDIA/ESX6.0/NVIDIA**.vib
root@<ESXi_IP_ADDR>:/.
ESXi 6.5 scp $HOME/NVIDIA/ESX6.5/NVIDIA**.vib
root@<ESXi_IP_ADDR>:/.
ESXi 6.7 scp $HOME/NVIDIA/ESX6.7/NVIDIA**.vib
root@<ESXi_IP_ADDR>:/.
5. Use the following steps to log in as root to the ESXi host and install the NVIDIA vGPU manager in ESXi.
a. Run the following command to log in to the ESXi host as the root user:
ssh root@<ESXi_IP_ADDRESS>
b. Run the following command to verify that no NVIDIA GPU drivers are currently installed:
nvidia-smi
This command should return the message
nvidia-smi: not found
.
c. Run the following commands to enable maintenance mode on the host and install the NVIDIA vGPU
Manager from the VIB file:
esxcli system maintenanceMode set --enable true
esxcli software vib install -v /NVIDIA**.vib
You should see the message
Operation finished successfully
.
d. Run the following command and verify that all eight GPU drivers are listed in the command output:
nvidia-smi
e. Run the following command to verify that the NVIDIA vGPU package was installed and loaded
correctly:
vmkload_mod -l | grep nvidia
The command should return output similar to the following:
nvidia 816 13808
f. Run the following commands to exit maintenance mode and reboot the host:
esxcli system maintenanceMode set –enable false
reboot -f
6. Repeat steps 4-6 for any other newly deployed compute nodes with NVIDIA GPUs.
7. Perform the following tasks using the instructions in the NVIDIA documentation site:
a. Install the NVIDIA license server.
b. Configure the virtual machine guests for NVIDIA vGPU software.
c. If you are using vGPU-enabled desktops in a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) context, configure
VMware Horizon View for NVIDIA vGPU software.
Add the node to the cluster
You should configure NetApp HCI to use the new compute node.
What you’ll need
• The vSphere instance NetApp HCI is using has vSphere Enterprise Plus licensing if you are adding the
node to a deployment with Virtual Distributed Switches.
