RESTORING THE DGX-2 SOFTWARE IMAGE
If the DGX-2 software image becomes corrupted (or both OS NVMe drives are replaced),
restore the
DGX-2 software image to its original factory condition from a pristine copy of
the image.
The process for restoring the
DGX-2 software image is as follows:
1. Obtain an ISO file that contains the image from NVIDIA Enterprise Support as
explained in
Obtaining the DGX-2 Software ISO Image and Checksum File.
2. Restore the DGX-2 software image from this file either remotely through the BMC or
locally from a bootable USB flash drive.
● If you are restoring the image remotely, follow the instructions in Re-Imaging the
System Remotely.
● If you are restoring the image locally, prepare a bootable USB flash drive and
restore the image from the USB flash drive as explained in the following topics:
― Creating a Bootable Installation Medium
― Re-Imaging the System From a USB Flash Drive
Note: The DGX OS Server software is restored on one of the two NMVe M.2 drives.
When the system is booted after restoring the image, software RAID begins the process
rebuilding the RAID 1 array - creating a mirror of (or resynchronizing) the drive
containing the software. System performance may be affected during the RAID 1
rebuild process, which can take an hour to complete.
