Hi, I am looking to host the Usdsearch api on my jetson orin nx. In the microk8s.sh installation bash file there is a line that requires nvidia-smi.
" # make sure nvidia-drivers are installed
if ! command -v nvidia-smi &> /dev/null
then
print_red “NVIDIA GPU drivers are not installed.”
print_red “Please follow this intallation guide for installing: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/nvidia-drivers-installation”
exit 1
else
print_green “\xE2\x9C\x94 NVIDIA drivers found. Version: $(nvidia-smi --query-gpu=driver_version --format=csv,noheader --id=0)”
fi
"
Is it okay to skip this requirement? Or is nvidia-smi actually necessary for usdsearch or is this line a simple way to check that there are nvidia drivers installed.
Sorry for my ignorance of the inner working of this api but currently i have it self hosted on a workstation. Doesn’t it all run locally in my microk8 cluster and only query my s3/nucleus server? So couldn’t it be possible to host the cluster and micro services/processes on the jetson?
