[QST]: cufile.log Path Change
What is your question? Hello, is there a way to change the cufile.log path? It is always created in the entrypoint folder of my python module.
Thanks in advance!
I also noticed this happens with the nvidia pytorch 22.11 container and versions after. To reproduce it
docker run -it --rm --gpus all nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:22.09-py3 bash -c "pip install cucim; python -c 'import cucim'; ls 'cufile.log'"
In 22.10 and earlier:
docker run -it --rm --gpus all nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:22.10-py3 bash -c "pip install cucim; python -c 'import cucim'; ls 'cufile.log'"
It will throw the error: ls: cannot access 'cufile.log': No such file or directory
In the cufile.log:
19-02-2023 06:10:38:318 [pid=97 tid=97] NOTICE cufio-drv:705 running in compatible mode
I am looking for the correct practices. (1) Is this log notice something that needs fix? (2) If I need to move the log file to other places, is there some convention where this file should belong to?
Thank you
In the https://docs.nvidia.com/gpudirect-storage/troubleshooting-guide/index.html#enable-diff-log-file-app
If the logging:dir property in the default /etc/cufile.json file is not set, by default, the cufile.log file is generated in the current working directory of the application.
Is that the case?

This means that the system doesn't have a GDS-enabled storage device and drivers, so the GDS API call would execute the regular posix API without the benefit of GDS.
