# Nvidia GPU Device Plugin
Name: `nvidia-gpu`
The Nvidia device plugin is used to expose Nvidia GPUs to Nomad. The Nvidia
plugin is built into Nomad and does not need to be downloaded separately.

## Runtime Environment
The `nvidia-gpu` device plugin exposes the following environment variables:
* `NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES` - List of Nvidia GPU IDs available to the task.
### Additional Task Configurations
Additional environment variables can be set by the task to influence the runtime
environment. See [Nvidia's
documentation](https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-runtime#environment-variables-oci-spec).
## Installation Requirements
In order to use the `nvidia-gpu` the following prerequisites must be met:
1. GNU/Linux x86_64 with kernel version > 3.10
2. NVIDIA GPU with Architecture > Fermi (2.1)
3. NVIDIA drivers >= 340.29 with binary `nvidia-smi`
### Docker Driver Requirements
In order to use the Nvidia driver plugin with the Docker driver, please follow
the installation instructions for
[`nvidia-docker`](https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker/wiki/Installation-\(version-1.0\)).
## Plugin Configuration
```hcl
plugin "nvidia-gpu" {
ignored_gpu_ids = ["GPU-fef8089b", "GPU-ac81e44d"]
fingerprint_period = "1m"
}
```
The `nvidia-gpu` device plugin supports the following configuration in the agent
config:
* `ignored_gpu_ids` `(array<string>: [])` - Specifies the set of GPU UUIDs that
should be ignored when fingerprinting.
* `fingerprint_period` `(string: "1m")` - The period in which to fingerprint for
device changes.
## Restrictions
The Nvidia integration only works with drivers who natively integrate with
Nvidia's [container runtime
library](https://github.com/NVIDIA/libnvidia-container).
Nomad has tested support with the [`docker` driver][docker-driver] and plans to
bring support to the built-in [`exec`][exec-driver] and [`java`][java-driver]
drivers. Support for [`lxc`][lxc-driver] should be possible by installing the
[Nvidia hook](https://github.com/lxc/lxc/blob/master/hooks/nvidia) but is not
tested or documented by Nomad.

Run the following example job to see that that the GPU was mounted in the
container:
```hcl
job "gpu-test" {
datacenters = ["dc1"]
type = "batch"
group "smi" {
task "smi" {
driver = "docker"
config {
image = "nvidia/cuda:9.0-base"
command = "nvidia-smi"
}
resources {
device "nvidia/gpu" {
count = 1
# Add an affinity for a particular model
affinity {
attribute = "${device.model}"
value = "Tesla K80"
weight = 50
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
```sh
$ nomad run example.nomad
