Hello.
I bought PC whose environment is setted as Ubuntu 16.04LTS + GPU driver + NVIDIA Docker(Docker CE).
I registered to NGC, get API key, pull docker image from NGC and confirmed following command work properly.
$sudo docker run --runtime=nvidia --rm nvcr.io/nvidia/cuda:9.0-cudnn7-devel-ubuntu16.04 nvidia-smi
But after setting up Jetson with this PC and having troubles regarding cuda, I found the nvidia-docker was lost.
I think I might have deleted it during trouble shooting of Jetson.
Then, it is OK to re-install nvidia-docker again following the instruction such as https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/dgx/preparing-containers/index.html? I don’t want to lose Jetson’s setting up environment because I may want to
upgrade Jetpack later. Could you give me advices if there are checkpoints before starting installation of nvidia-docker?
Also, is it OK to install nvidia-docker2? Or do I have to install nvidia-docker1?
My PC environment is as follows.
Ubuntu 16.04LTS
GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1)
NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 396.44
I look forward to hearing from you.
As far as I know, you should be able to have nvidia-docker (v1 or v2) installed on the same machine you use to install JetPack onto your Jetson with no problems.
NGC DL Framework containers work just fine with nvidia-docker2. The DGX installation page you cited mentions v1 simply because that’s the one that has shipped with DGX OS versions up to now. For non-DGX, you can just follow the instructions on the nvidia-docker GitHub page: nvidia-docker/README.md at master · NVIDIA/nvidia-docker · GitHub
Thank you for your advice.
I followed the instructions of nvidia-docker/README.md at master · NVIDIA/nvidia-docker · GitHub Ubuntu 14.04/16.04/18.04, Debian Jessie/Stretch. But following error came at $sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-docker2.

I’m not sure if this was the reason, but after adding to /etc/apt/sources.list

(above line was commented out before)
I could successfully install nvidia-docker2.
Thank you.
