Some users who have upgraded to 24.10.0 from a previous version, and who have applications with have NVIDIA GPU allocations, report the error Expected [uuid] to be set for GPU inslot [<some pci slot>] in [nvidia_gpu_selection]) (see NAS-132086).Users experiencing this error should follow the steps below for a one time fix that should not need to be repeated.Connect to a shell session and retrieve the UUID for each GPU with the command midclt call app.gpu_choices | jq.For each application that experiences the error, run midclt call -job app.update APP_NAME '{"values": {"resources": {"gpus": {"use_all_gpus": false, "nvidia_gpu_selection": {"PCI_SLOT": {"use_gpu": true, "uuid": "GPU_UUID"}}}}}}' Where:

  • APP_NAME is the name you entered in the application, for example “plex”.
  • PCI_SLOT is the pci slot identified in the error, for example “0000:2d:00.0”.
  • GPU_UUID is the UUID matching the pci slot that you retrieved with the above command.
