Last updated: 2024-01-11 17:11:13

    Possible Causes

    This may be caused by the ECC Memory Scrubbing mechanism used when the instance loads the NVIDIA driver.

    Instructions

    1. Log in to the GPU instance and run the following command:
    nvidia-smi -pm 1
    
    
    
    2. Run the following command to check GPU usage:
