Hi,

I am new using Azure VMs and executing tf.is_gpu_available() I got a False response.

So, I guess GPU is not activated or kind so.

Can anyone help me to solve this issue?

Below is shown nvidia-smi response.

I would be very grateful with any help.

    Hello @JUAN FELIPE BARAHONA GONZALEZ

    You need to install NVIDIA GPU drivers to take advantage of the GPU capabilities of Azure N-series VMs backed by NVIDIA GPUs.
    You may do the installation in 2 ways:
