One way to\nprevent this is to create your own image that is based on one of the\nDeep Learning VM images, but that already has the NVIDIA drivers\npreinstalled.\n\nThis topic describes how to create a new image based on an existing\nDeep Learning VM image.\n\nCreate a new instance\n---------------------\n\nFirst, follow the instructions in one of the following topics to create a new\ninstance. Be sure to include at least one GPU in your new instance.\n\n- [Creating a TensorFlow Deep Learning VM\n Instance](/deep-learning-vm/docs/tensorflow_start_instance)\n- [Creating a PyTorch Deep Learning VM\n Instance](/deep-learning-vm/docs/pytorch_start_instance)\n- [Creating a Deep Learning VM Instance from the Command\n Line](/deep-learning-vm/docs/cli)\n- [Creating a Deep Learning VM Instance from the Cloud\n Marketplace](/deep-learning-vm/docs/cloud-marketplace)\n\nVerify NVIDIA driver install\n----------------------------\n\nOnce the instance has booted, verify that the NVIDIA driver has been\ninstalled:\n\n1. SSH to your image: \n\n ```\n gcloud compute ssh \"DEPLOYMENT_NAME\"\n ```\n2. Run the following command: \n\n ```\n nvidia-smi\n ```\n\nIf the drivers have been installed, you can continue.\n\nStop the instance\n-----------------\n\nStop the instance by running the following command: \n\n```\ngcloud compute instances stop \"DEPLOYMENT_NAME\"\n```\n\nCreate your own image\n---------------------\n\nNow you create your own image based on the stopped instance. Run the following\nat the command line, giving the new image a name and a family name: \n\n```\ngcloud compute images create \"NEW_IMAGE_NAME\" \\\n --source-disk DEPLOYMENT_NAME \\\n --source-disk-zone ZONE \\\n --family NEW_FAMILY_NAME\n```\n\nOnce the command is finished running, you have a new image with NVIDIA drivers\npreinstalled that you can use to create new Deep Learning VM instances."]]
