Dell PowerEdge R710 build PART 9|9 | my mistake, LXC GPU pass-through, PLEX transcoding

Dell PowerEdge R710 build PART 9|9 | my mistake, LXC GPU pass-through, PLEX transcoding In this video, I'm going to setup a LXC container running CentOS7 to run PLEX. I will configure GPU passthrough to allow the container access to the Quadro P2000 so that PLEX can use it for hardware transcoding. Along the way, I'll show you how to install PLEX on CentOS7, as well as install the necessary nvidia CUDA driver files to enable hardware transcoding in PLEX. Finally, I will demonstrate PLEX GPU transcoding works in this setup.

This will be the last video in this R710 build series. I'll give you my final thoughts in closing.

Here are the lines to add to the LXC container configuration:
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 195:0 rw
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 195:255 rw
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 195:254 rw
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 237:0 rw
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 237:1 rw
lxc.mount.entry = /dev/nvidia0 dev/nvidia0 none bind,optional,create=file
lxc.mount.entry = /dev/nvidiactl dev/nvidiactl none bind,optional,create=file
lxc.mount.entry = /dev/nvidia-modeset dev/nvidia-modeset none bind,optional,create=file
lxc.mount.entry = /dev/nvidia-uvm dev/nvidia-uvm none bind,optional,create=file
lxc.mount.entry = /dev/nvidia-uvm-tools dev/nvidia-uvm-tools none bind,optional,create=file
