Hi all! My rig has yet to be built but reading about the full headless mode for P106_100 made me think on this aspect of my project I don't resolved yet. Does nvOC also supports full headless mode for other nvidia cards with video outputs? I mean, can I run nvOC on a rig made only of 1070s without a monitor attached after all setup is completed?
Hi LuKePicci,
Yes, you can! I have 4 rigs running with nvOC and no any monitor attached.
All I need is SSH
Thank you for your confirmation, but should I enable the option for P106_100_FULL_HEADLESS_MODE even if my gpus are 1070s? If yes, should it be enabled only when booting with no monitor attached or even while troubleshooting/installing with a monitor connected (to the primary nvidia gpu and not to the iGPU as written in the op)?
If your first boot is with a monitor attached to your 1070 or any card with monitor output you dont need full headless. Attach monitor with HDMI and run the OS as normal and then remove HDMI. You can boot, reboot, .... without cable attached.
