package)
I've looked up all the materials I think will help you from user management to PAM settings on Google, but I don't think there's any information to restrict access by SSH time zone.

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
