Exam NCP-AII Topic 1 Question 182 Discussion

Actual exam question for NVIDIA's NCP-AII exam
Question #: 182
Topic #: 1
After successfully installing the NVIDIA Container Toolkit and configuring the Docker runtime, you attempt to run a container that requires GPU access. However, the container fails to start with an error indicating that no GPUs are detected. You've verified that 'nvidia-smi' works on the host. Which of the following could be potential causes for this issue? (Select all that apply)

Suggested Answer: A,B,C Vote an answer

Several factors can cause this issue. A driver-kernel incompatibility (A) prevents the NVIDIA drivers from properly communicating with the hardware. Forgetting to restart the Docker daemon (B) means the configuration changes applied by 'nvidia-ctk' are not active. The '-gpus all' (or equivalent) flag (C) is mandatory to explicitly request GPU resources for the container. Corrupted toolkit (D) would likely present installation failures earlier. Missing CUDA libraries (E) would likely lead to runtime errors within the container, not a failure to detect the GPUs in the first place.
