Description

The silent installation for NVIDIA toolkit is not successful. The NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit folder is not getting created causing build compiles to throw error saying CUDA_HOME not found.

The issue can be resolved by changing compiler_9.1 in the playbook to nvcc_9.1
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/archive/9.1/cuda-installation-guide-microsoft-windows/index.html

` C:\temp\cuda_9.1.85_win10_network.exe -s nvcc_9.1 nvml_dev_9.1`

9.1 version was released back in 2017, Is there any reason why we cant change it to a newer version?
12.0.0 offers support to most windows versions -10, 11, server 2016,2019 and 2022.

- Bug in ansible playbook
- Request for new playbook addition

Research direction

Start with the Ansible playbook that installs the NVIDIA CUDA toolkit and inspect the silent installer command shown in the issue. Reproduce the installation failure, then verify that the CUDA toolkit folder is created and CUDA_HOME is available for builds; clarify separately whether updating beyond version 9.1 is in scope.
