01
No GPU inventory advertised
The provider may have no GPU installed or the hardware-discovery and inventory components may not publish it.
Akash provider troubleshooting
Your Akash provider cannot satisfy the workload's GPU requirement.
An Akash provider can be online and reachable while rejecting workloads that request GPU hardware the provider does not advertise, detect or currently have available.

Why an Akash GPU requirement blocks bids
The requested GPU vendor, model, memory and quantity must match discoverable provider inventory. Lower pricing cannot make missing GPU hardware compatible.
02
GPU vendor mismatch
The workload may require NVIDIA hardware while the provider advertises another vendor or no compatible vendor attribute.
03
GPU model mismatch
The order may request a specific model such as an RTX 3090, 4090 or 5090 that the provider does not have.
04
Insufficient GPU quantity or memory
The correct model may exist but the workload may request more devices or VRAM than are currently available.
05
Driver or Kubernetes discovery failure
Missing NVIDIA drivers, device plugins or node resource labels can prevent installed GPUs from appearing in cluster inventory.
06
GPU capacity already allocated
Compatible GPUs may be installed but unavailable because current deployments have already reserved them.

What to check when a workload requires GPU
Compare the workload GPU request with physical hardware, NVIDIA drivers, Kubernetes resources, hardware discovery and advertised provider inventory.
+Read the workload GPU request
Identify the required vendor, model, quantity, memory and related attributes.
Identify the required vendor, model, quantity, memory and related attributes.
+Confirm physical GPU hardware
Verify the exact installed models and available device count on each provider node.

+Check NVIDIA drivers
Confirm the operating system detects the cards and the driver reports them correctly.

+Check Kubernetes GPU resources
Verify the device plugin exposes allocatable GPU resources to Kubernetes.
