Additional Support Information¶
Do you support the nvidia-docker2 package?¶
In the context of the docker CLI, this package is no longer supported and can be considered deprecated.
However in the context of Kubernetes or Docker swarm, these orchestrators still rely on the old nvidia-docker2 package. Until this is solved in both orchestrators, the packages will continue to be maintained and we will continue to provide support to issues that user face.
Do you support the Docker docker-ce packages?¶
All stable releases of the docker-ce package, installed from https://docs.docker.com/install/ and starting from docker 19.03, are supported with the nvidia-container-toolkit package.
All stable releases of the docker-ce package, installed from https://docs.docker.com/install/ and starting from docker 18.06 are supported with the nvidia-docker2 package.
