Table of Contents

Deliverables

This repo contains the .spec file used to build the following RPM packages:

- cuda-drivers-fabricmanager
- cuda-drivers-fabricmanager-XXX
- nvidia-fabricmanager-XXX
- nvidia-fabricmanager-devel-XXX

Installation

  • RHEL8 or Fedora streams: XXX, XXX-dkms, latest, and latest-dkms

    dnf module install nvidia-driver:${stream}/fm

  • RHEL7

    yum install cuda-drivers-fabricmanager-XXX

  • openSUSE15 or SLES15

    zypper install cuda-drivers-fabricmanager-XXX

Building Manually

Parse JSON to retrieve download URL

baseURL="https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/redist"
curl -s $baseURL/redistrib_460.32.03.json | \
jq -r '."fabricmanager" | ."460.32.03" | ."linux-x86_64"' | \
sed "s|^|$baseURL/|"

Prepare build directory

cd yum-packaging-fabric-manager
mkdir SPECS SOURCES
cp *.spec SPECS/
cp ../fabricmanager*.tar.gz SOURCES/

Generate .rpm packages

rpmbuild \
    --define "%_topdir $(pwd)" \
    --define "%version 460.32.03" \
    --define "%branch 460" \
    --define "%_arch x86_64" \
    --define "%_build_arch x86_64" \
    --target=x86_64 \
    -v -ba SPECS/*.spec

cd RPMS/x86_64
ls *.rpm
