Configuring Storage
NVIDIA DGX A100 DU-09821-001 _v01|49
$ sudo configure_raid_array.py -m raid0
To confirm that the RAID level was changed as required, run the lsblk command. The
entry in the TYPE column for each SSD in the RAID array indicates the RAID level of the
array.
8.3. Configuring Support for Custom Drive
Partitioning
DGX A100 systems incorporate data drives configured as RAID 0 by default. You can alter
the default configuration by adding or removing drives, or by switching between a RAID 0
configuration and a RAID 5 configuration.
If you alter the default configuration, you must let NVSM know so that the utility does not flag
the configuration as an error, and so that NVSM can continue to monitor the health of the
drives.
1. Edit /etc/nvsm/nvsm.config and set the use_standard_config_storage parameter to false.
"use_standard_config_storage":false
2. Restart NVSM.
$ systemctl restart nvsm
If you restore the drive partition back to the default configuration, set the parameter back to
true .
