Nvidia Parabrick fq2bam pipeline error - No such file or directory

Question

I am trying to implement Nvidia-parabrick fq2bam pipeline to process my WES dataset. The reason for opting this pipeline is the huge number of samples (1004) which take many months to process for somatic mutation identification. THe GPU accelerated pipeline will be more helpful to get somatic mutations in a quick manner. After pulling parabrick docker image from here, the following command works fine and return the options :

docker run -it nvcr.io/hpc/parabricks:v2.5.0 -h

But whenever I give the following command to run fq2bam pipeline, I am getting an error of No such file or directory:

docker run -it nvcr.io/hpc/parabricks:v2.5.0 fq2bam --ref ucsc.hg19.fasta --in-fq sample_1.fastq.gz sample_2.fastq.gz --knownSites 1000G_phase1.indels.hg19.sites.vcf.gz --out-bam sample_dups_gpu.bam out-recal-file sample_recal_gpu.txt --tmp-dir /tmp

The error is as follows:

As I am using the docker image as it is,it is not clear to me which file is missing. Kindly suggest. Thanks.
