For VSS I am trying custom deployment using remote vlm, llm and reranker models so according to the guide the minimum GPU requirement is 8GB. I have a RTX 4070 windows machine with Ubuntu 22.04.5 installed in my system.
Docker version: Docker version 28.0.4, build b8034c0
Docker compose version: Docker Compose version v2.35.0

When I try docker compose up, I get this error:

✘ via-server Error 3.6s
✘ graph-db Error 3.6s
Error response from daemon: unauthorized:

401 Authorization Required

401 Authorization Required


nginx/1.22.1

Does this have anything to do with ubuntu being run from my windows machine?

Are you using WSL on your windows OS?

Yes I am using WSL on my windows OS

We have not confirmed the compatibility of VSS on the WSL at this time.

For the remote vlm mode, You need to configure the correct NVIDIA_API_KEY key and make sure you have enough credits in your NGC account.

Thank you, I will run on a linux machine in that case. Can you please tell me where I can check and add credits to my NGC account?

Hey shresht.shetty,
The way API endpoints on build.nvidia.com work has now changed. There are no more credits associated with accounts, and the limit is based on # of calls per minute, where each NIM has a different rate.
