Install CLORE.AI hosting
System requirements:
Minimum 32 GB disk
4 GB RAM (ideally 16 GB+ ram, becouse it is in most time necessary for most AI workloads)
NVIDIA GPU (if multiple per system, they all need to be the same model)
Ubuntu Server 18.04+ (Recommended Ubuntu Server 20.04) or HiveOS
CUDA 11.7+
Talk about the workloads:
On clore.ai marketplace users will be able to rent your system for various workloads, some workloads like 3D rendering or ai training will most of the time benefit from faster CPU and more RAM, it is not required by us, but if you will equip your system with more RAM and faster CPU you can ask higher price for it. Also you need to make sure that your system will be able to reach great stability, becouse unnecessary system downtime can cause issue to your customers.
1. Install Ubuntu Server 20.04 on your system
We also recommend to install openssh-server, so you can then connect to the system remotely
2. Install NVIDIA drivers
In case of running on Ubuntu
Now you need to install NVIDIA GPU drivers, so connect with ssh to your machine and run command
ubuntu-drivers list
Possible output:
You need to install latest non server driver, so with this output we will for example do sudo apt install nvidia-driver-520
In case of installing on HiveOS make sure you are running driver with CUDA 11.7+
Example installation on HiveOS
3. After finish, reboot machine
sudo reboot
4. Install clore.ai hosting server
We recommend to switch to root user to do this action sudo -i Then run this one command
When everything goes smoothly you will be show INSTALLATION COMPLETE message any you will be prompted to run /opt/clore-hosting/clore.sh --init-token <token> you will get then token from clore.ai when you create server
5 Reboot
After you succesfully connect your machine to clore.ai, you will do one final reboot and the machine should appear in your dashboard as running, you can set the price for what you will rent the machine and change it's availability
Final note
Don't turn off your machine when it is rented, it is computing service for someone else, you yourself whould not be happy if you will be for example training some ai model on some remote server and it just went offline, so please if you want to turn off your machine to move it somewhere else or to make maintainance, please firstly set it's availability to not available in settings and wait until the machine will not be rented. On the same note we recommend to enable power on on AC power loss in bios, so when the power will be down and then gets back up the system will automatically start up reducing downtime
