Description
This module installs the NVIDIA CUDA repository to RedHad-based systems, which provides packages for CUDA tooling, CUDA libraries and NVIDIA's proprietary drivers.
Setup
Setup Requirements
This module requires puppet-yum
being installed.
Beginning with nvdarepo
Just add include ndvarepo
to add all configured repositories at their default location.
Usage
Using include nvdarepo
should be sufficient to achive everything this module supports. Currently, only the CUDA repository is installed, which can be installed separately via include nvdarepo::cuda
to make sure that no other repositories get installed if additional ones are added in future version.
If the automatic computation of the repository properties does not work, it is best customising the behaviour of the module via Hiera. Most notably, the automatically computed repository URLs of the CUDA repository depend on the following parameters:
Name | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
nvdarepo::cuda::base_url |
The base URL where all OS-dependent subdirectories are located. | https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos |
nvdarepo::cuda::key_src |
The URL of NVIDIA's GPG key. | https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/7fa2af80.pub |
nvdarepo::cuda::key_id |
The ID of NVIDIA's GPG key. | 0xF60F4B3D7FA2AF80 |
nvdarepo::cuda::version_field |
The OS version fact used to compose the repository URL. | major |
nvdarepo::cuda::distro_override |
Forces the specified distribution name instead of the OS name fact to be used in the repository URL. | rhel or fedora, respectively |
nvdarepo::cuda::repo_src_override |
Overrides the whole repository URL. Nothing will be computed automatically. | false |
Furthermore, the following parameters can be used to configure the local behaviour of the module, i.e. where the repository file is stored:
Name | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
nvdarepo::cuda::repo_dir |
The directory where the repository files are stored. | /etc/yum.repos.d |
nvdarepo::cuda::repo_ext |
The file name extension of the repostiry files. | .repo |
nvdarepo::cuda::repo_owner |
User name or ID of the owner of the repository file. | root |
nvdarepo::cuda::repo_group |
Group name or ID of the owning group of the repository file. | root |
nvdarepo::cuda::key_dir |
The directory where the GPG keys are stored. | /etc/pki/rpm-gpg |
nvdarepo::cuda::key_prefix |
A prefix that is prepended to the GPG key file. | RPM-GPG-KEY- |
Limitations
Only distributions listed in metadata.json
are supported.
