I got 4 T4-2Q and want to host them in a Ruby Cloud.
I thought, I had it all set up, but my virtual GPU can’t fetch the license.
I am using Ubuntu 20.04, CUDA 11.2, CUDNN 8.1, I set the server address to the correct server in gridd.conf, however, when I type
sudo service nvidia-gridd restart
I get no licence.
If I type in var/log/
sudo grep gridd syslog
I get the following message:
Jul 5 15:31:31 ds-lab-gpu-ubuntu-2004 nvidia-gridd: Calling load_byte_array(tra)
Jul 5 15:31:33 ds-lab-gpu-ubuntu-2004 nvidia-gridd: Failed to acquire/renew license from license server. (Info: http://10.38.224.110:7070/request; NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation - Error: [1,7E2,2,0[7000000B,0,702C7]]#012Requested feature was not found.)
From my research, I found out, that I need a vWS license, yet in my license server, I got a NVIDIA Virtual Compute Server license.
I tried all possible values in gridd.conf (1, 2, 4) and in every case, I could not acquire a license.
Right now, I have the FeatureType 2.
When I type
sudo service nvidia-gridd restart
nvidia-smi -q
I get the following:
ubuntu@ds-lab-gpu-ubuntu-2004:~$ nvidia-smi -q

I pseudonymized certain data due to protect my company. Is it possible, that the GPU is not set up correctly? The amount of N/A-values worries me.
Also, if you need any other information, please feel free to tell me, what you need (and, sadly, how I can acquire this information, since I am quite new to Linux and vGPUs).
Hi,
forgot to mention you need to choose the right profile :) You can only use the C profile for your license type!!!
License assignment is based on the profile.
Correct. You can only use the C-profile which means starting with T4-4C as you stated above. Simply remove the Q profile and add the C profile to the VM.
