GPU provisioning

Use the instructions to add nodes with GPU in OpenShift cluster running in AWS cloud. Nodes with GPU will be tainted to allow only pods that required GPU to be scheduled to these nodes

More details can be found in following documents Openshift AI, NVIDIA on OpenShift

Add machineset

The easiest way is to use existing machineset manifest and update certain elements. Use worker machineset manifest and modify some of the entries (naming conventions provided as reference only, use own if required.), keep other entries as is:

apiVersion: machine.openshift.io/v1beta1
kind: MachineSet
metadata:
  name: <clustername>-gpu-<AWSregion>
..............
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      ................
      machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machineset: <clustername>-gpu-<AWSregion>
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        ........
        machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machineset: <clustername>-gpu-<AWSregion>
    spec:
      ...................
      metadata:
        labels:
          node-role.kubernetes.io/odh-notebook: '' <--- Put your label if needed
      providerSpec:
        value:
          ........................
          instanceType: g5.2xlarge <---- Change vm type if needed
      .............
      taints:
        - effect: NoSchedule
          key: odh-notebook  <--- Use own taint name or skip all together
          value: 'true'

Use kubectl or oc command line to create new machineset oc apply -f gpu_machineset.yaml

Depending on type of EC2 instance creation of the new machines make take some time. Please note that all nodes with GPU will have labels(node-role.kubernetes.io/odh-notebookin our case) and taints (odh-notebook ) that we have specified in machineset applied automatically

Install Node Feature Operator

From OperatorHub install Node Feature Discovery Operator , accepting defaults . Once Operator has been installed , create NodeFeatureDiscoveryinstance . Use default entries unless you something specific is needed . Node Feature Discovery Operator will add labels to nodes based on available hardware resources

Install NVIDIA GPU Operator

NVIDIA GPU Operator will provision daemonsets with drivers for the GPU to be used by workload running on these nodes . Detailed instructions are available in NVIDIA Documentation NVIDIA on OpenShift . Following simplified steps for specific setup :

  • Install NVIDIA GPU Operator from OperatorHub
  • Once operator is ready create ClusterPolicy custom resource. Unless required you can use default settings with adding tolerations if machineset in first section has been created with taint. Failing to add tolerations will prevent drivers to be installed on GPU enabled node :
apiVersion: nvidia.com/v1

Provisioning NVIDIA daemonsets and compiling drivers may take some time (5-10 minutes)
