FAQPage Schema
How do I configure my NVIDIA DGX Spark environment for the DGX Lab dashboard?

This setup process configures your local development and production environment by validating nvidia-smi access, installing Python, Bun, and Docker dependencies, and setting environment variables for model storage and memory allocation.

What dependencies do I need to install before deploying the DGX Lab dashboard?

Before deploying the DGX Lab dashboard, you need Python, uv, Bun, and Docker installed on your machine. The setup process automatically checks for these system dependencies and configures reverse proxy settings for local or remote access.

Does the DGX Lab setup process work on any GPU-enabled machine or only NVIDIA DGX Spark?

The setup process is designed specifically for NVIDIA DGX Spark hardware but can run on GPU-enabled machines. It validates nvidia-smi access to ensure system compatibility before configuring model caches, experiment directories, and memory budgets.

How do I set environment variables for model storage and memory allocation on my DGX Spark node?

You can set environment variables for model storage and memory allocation by running the setup skill, which provides a structured path to configure model caches, experiment directories, and memory budgets tailored to your specific DGX Spark hardware.

Why do I need to validate nvidia-smi access when setting up my DGX Lab environment?

Validating nvidia-smi access is required during setup to ensure your system has compatible NVIDIA GPU hardware and drivers. This validation guarantees that the DGX Lab dashboard can properly allocate memory and manage model storage on your machine.

Can I configure reverse proxy settings for remote access when initializing the DGX Lab stack?

Yes, the setup process configures reverse proxy settings for either local or remote access. This allows you to launch and manage your development or production stack from a remote machine after validating your system prerequisites.
