Requested docker runtime "nvidia" was not found

I am having some issues and I’m hoping to find some help. I am running into issues with GPU, Docker and Nomad working together.

My Docker container works on the agent node (worker node)
sudo docker run --gpus 1 -it tait:local nvidia-smi

My Nomad and Docker container work okay. When I submit a job that doesn’t require GPU it works fine.

This HCL doesn’t work as well

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     = "GeForce RTX 2070"
            weight    = 50
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

My node can see the GPU so I believe the plugin is working fine.

My nomad version is:
Nomad v1.0.5 (0b870631cfa0c8e52cf698d7a7cc7989fbaec576)

And finally this is the logs from the job:

I also have nvidia container runtime files.


     apt-cache search nvidia-container
libnvidia-container-dev - NVIDIA container runtime library (development files)
libnvidia-container-tools - NVIDIA container runtime library (command-line tools)
libnvidia-container1-dbg - NVIDIA container runtime library (debugging symbols)
libnvidia-container1 - NVIDIA container runtime library

nvidia-container-toolkit - NVIDIA container runtime hook

If anyone is reading this you need to setup the nvidia-runtime-container on your worker node.

  • Install the nvidia-container-runtime package:

But then you need to register it with docker as a runtime.
