Hello,
I love the feature that I can reuse previous downloaded model files to save time during restart of riva NIMs.
However, seems that the script responsible of checking availability of local file, ie the -v switch, does not handle files with version number attached.
Looks like the startup script would rename the file name by replacing “:” with “_v”. So we have “nim/nvidia/parakeet-ctc-riva-1-1b**:en-us-str-thr_rmir_24.06" saved in "nim/nvidia/parakeet-ctc-riva-1-1b_v**en-us-str-thr_rmir_24.06”
I tried to create a local symbol link as a hack but did not work.
$ln -s nim/nvidia/parakeet-ctc-riva-1-1b:en-us-str-thr_rmir_24.06 nim/nvidia/parakeet-ctc-riva-1-1b_ven-us-str-thr_rmir_24.06
