=New (by Wei and Minh): Tensorflow 1.9.0 with GPU Installation Log=
'''Important note:'''<br>
Install the version of software/packages strictly according to the instructions provided by Tensorflow. A different version of software, for example CUDA toolkit 9.2 instead of 9.0, might lead to failure in tensorflow. When upgrading tensorflow, do it very carefully. As of July 2018, Tensorflow is [https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/17629 notoriously easy to break] with careless installation.
==Synopsis==
Tensorflow as previously installed. In 2018 Summer, a new piece of graphics card was installed on DB Server. Wei and Minh hence-force installed and configured '''tensorflow-gpu 1.9.0 for Python3.6''' for all users of DB Server.
==NVIDIA configuration==
