I am working on an IoTEdge Module with image detection capabilities. For the image processing/analysing I am using Detectron which needs to run in an docker nvidia runtime.

Is it possible to enable an nvidia runtime for IoTEdge Modules and Docker Moby and how? I am not able to figure out on how to make it work. There is an entry about the topic here, but I am still not able to get it work: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/23917 https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker/wiki/Internals

I figured out, how to get it work with Docker CE, unfortunatly, the documentation says, Moby is not supported by IoT Edge. I havn't found any sideeffects yet, but for production it would be nice to understand the impact.

You can try setting the runtime as nvidia in the create options in your deployment.json in addition to any other create options you specify. 

      "createOptions": {
        "HostConfig": {
          "runtime": "nvidia"
        }}

  • I undestand how to configure the container to use the nvida runtime in general. The problem is that I have to use Docker CE instead of Moby. But the documentation of IoT Edge says only Moby is supported. So the question is, how do I get Moby and the NVIDIA runtime together. – cykone Feb 05 '19 at 14:25
