nvidiaDriverVersion should be removed since it is being ignored by Google Life Sciences API #7175

Open gavrie opened 1 year ago

After spending a lot of time trying to understand why the Google Life Sciences API doesn't use the NVIDIA driver version we specified in the workflow via nvidiaDriverVersion, we discovered that this setting is deprecated and ignored by the API:

From the API docs:

nvidia_driver_version is ignored. Instead, a compatible NVIDIA driver version will be selected for any attached NVIDIA GPUs.

Also see this discussion on the subject.

Please remove this setting from the Cromwell code and docs, since it is quite misleading.
