CUDA & NVML Validation

Use the supplied CUDA and NVML validation utilities as diagnostics. They confirm the GPU path; they are not application configuration requirements.

VALIDATION

Validate CUDA and NVML

Use the supplied CUDA and NVML validation utilities when you need to test the GPU path below an application. Successful output confirms device discovery and core API communication through STRATUM GPU.

These tools are diagnostics. A normal application should not need STRATUM-specific environment variables or application changes after Guest Tools are installed.
