Nvidia H100 PCIe VBIOS update

E-ugene — Sat, 14 Sep 2024 09:55:17 GMT

Hello, I'm having a bit of trouble updating the VBIOS on my H100 GPU with HPE's tool.

https://support.hpe.com/connect/s/softwaredetails?language=en_US&softwareId=MTX_8185a55ddd114fc59016b4563d&tab=Installation+Instructions

This tool seems to be incompatible with my operating system. Can anyone help me? Thanks you!

It looks like linking sh to bash would fix that issue, but now I'm facing a new one. The tool can't seem to grab the VBIOS info from my H100 GPU, which isn't right, is it? Any idea what's going on?
