本文将从 GPU-Operator 概念介绍、安装部署、深度训练测试应用部署,以及在 KubeSphere 使用自定义监控面板对接 GPU 监控,从原理到实践,逐步浅析介绍与实践 GPU-Operator。
GPU-Operator简介
众所周知,Kubernetes 平台通过设备插件框架提供对特殊硬件资源的访问,如 NVIDIA GPU、网卡、Infiniband 适配器和其他设备。然而,使用这些硬件资源配置和管理节点需要配置多个软件组件,如驱动程序、容器运行时或其他依赖库,这是比较困难的和容易出错的。
NVIDIA GPU Operator 由 Nvidia 公司开源,利用了 Kubernetes 的 Operator 控制模式,方便地自动化集成管理 GPU 所需的 NVIDIA 设备组件,有效地解决了上述GPU设备集成的痛点。这些组件包括 NVIDIA 驱动程序(用于启用 CUDA )、用于 GPU 的 Kubernetes 设备插件、NVIDIA Container 运行时、自动节点标签、基于 DCGM 的监控等。
NVIDIA GPU Operator 的不仅实现了设备和组件一体化集成,而且它管理 GPU 节点就像管理 CPU 节点一样方便,无需单独为 GPU 节点提供特殊的操作系统。值得关注的是,它将 GPU 各组件容器化,提供 GPU 能力,非常适合快速扩展和管理规模 GPU 节点。当然,对于已经为 GPU 组件构建了特殊操作系统的应用场景来说,显得并不是那么合适了。
GPU-Operator 架构原理
前文提到,NVIDIA GPU Operator 管理 GPU 节点就像管理 CPU 节点一样方便,那么它是如何实现这一能力呢?
我们一起来看看 GPU-Operator 运行时的架构图:
通过图中的描述,我们可以知道, GPU-Operator 是通过实现了 Nvidia 容器运行时,以runC
作为输入,在runC
中preStart hook
中注入了一个名叫nvidia-container-toolkit
的脚本,该脚本调用libnvidia-container CLI
设置一系列合适的flags
,使得容器运行后具有 GPU 能力。
GPU-Operator 安装说明
前提条件
在安装 GPU Operator 之前,请配置好安装环境如下:
- 所有节点不需要预先安装NVIDIA组件(
driver
,container runtime
,device plugin
); - 所有节点必须配置
Docker
,cri-o
, 或者containerd
.对于 docker 来说,可以参考这里; - 如果使用HWE内核(e.g. kernel 5.x) 的 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS 环境下,需要给
nouveau driver
添加黑名单,需要更新initramfs
;
$ sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf # 在尾部添加黑名单
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
$ reboot
$ lsmod | grep nouveau # 验证nouveau是否已禁用
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep name | cut -f2 -d: | uniq -c #本文测试时处理器架构代号为Broadwell
16 Intel Core Processor (Broadwell)
- 节点发现(NFD) 需要在每个节点上配置,默认情况会直接安装,如果已经配置,请在
Helm chart
变量设置nfd.enabled
为false
, 再安装; - 如果使用 Kubernetes 1.13和1.14, 需要激活 KubeletPodResources;

安装doker环境
可参考 Docker 官方文档
安装NVIDIA Docker
配置 stable 仓库和 GPG key :
$ distribution=$(. /etc/os-release;echo $ID$VERSION_ID) \
&& curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/nvidia-docker/gpgkey | sudo apt-key add - \
&& curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/nvidia-docker/$distribution/nvidia-docker.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-docker.list
更新软件仓库后安装nvidia-docker2
并添加运行时配置:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-docker2
-----
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
-----
# 初次安装,遇到以上交互式问题可选择N
# 如果选择Y会覆盖你的一些默认配置
# 选择N后,将以下配置添加到etc/docker/daemon.json
{
"runtimes": {
"nvidia": {
"path": "/usr/bin/nvidia-container-runtime",
"runtimeArgs": []
}
}
}
重启docker
:
$ sudo systemctl restart docker
安装Helm
$ curl -fsSL -o get_helm.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/helm/helm/master/scripts/get-helm-3 \
&& chmod 700 get_helm.sh \
&& ./get_helm.sh
添加helm
仓库
$ helm repo add nvidia https://nvidia.github.io/gpu-operator \
&& helm repo update
安装 NVIDIA GPU Operator
不同的容器运行时安装方法稍有区别:
docker as runtime
$ kubectl create ns gpu-operator-resources
$ helm install gpu-operator nvidia/gpu-operator -n gpu-operator-resources --wait
如果需要指定驱动版本,可参考如下:
$ helm install gpu-operator nvidia/gpu-operator -n gpu-operator-resources \
--set driver.version="450.80.02"
crio as runtime
helm install gpu-operator nvidia/gpu-operator -n gpu-operator-resources\
--set operator.defaultRuntime=crio
containerd as runtime
helm install gpu-operator nvidia/gpu-operator -n gpu-operator-resources\
--set operator.defaultRuntime=containerd
Furthermore, when setting containerd as the defaultRuntime the following options are also available:
toolkit:
env:
- name: CONTAINERD_CONFIG
value: /etc/containerd/config.toml
- name: CONTAINERD_SOCKET
value: /run/containerd/containerd.sock
- name: CONTAINERD_RUNTIME_CLASS
value: nvidia
- name: CONTAINERD_SET_AS_DEFAULT
value: true
由于安装的镜像比较大,所以初次安装过程中可能会出现超时的情形,请检查你的镜像是否在拉取中!可以考虑使用离线安装解决该类问题
使用 values.yaml 安装
$ helm install gpu-operator nvidia/gpu-operator -n gpu-operator-resources -f values.yaml

运行深度学习任务
进入jupyter notebook
环境后,尝试进入终端,运行深度学习任务:
进入terminal
后拉取tersorflow
测试代码并运行:
与此同时,开启另外一个终端运行nvidia-smi
查看 GPU 监控使用情况:
利用 KubeSphere 自定义监控功能监控 GPU
部署 ServiceMonitor
gpu-operator
帮我们提供了nvidia-dcgm-exporter
这个exportor
, 只需要将它集成到Prometheus
的可采集对象中,也就是ServiceMonitor
中,我们就能获取GPU监控数据了:
$ kubectl get pods -n gpu-operator-resources

创建 KubeSphere GPU 自定义监控面板
KubeSphere 3.0
如果部署的 KubeSphere 版本是KubeSphere 3.0
,需要简单地配置以下几个步骤,便可顺利完成可观测性监控。
首先, 登录kubsphere console
后,创建一个企业空间名称为ks-monitoring-demo
, 名称可按需创建;
其次,需要将ServiceMonitor
所在的目标名称空间gpu-operator-resources
分配为已存在的企业空间中,以便纳入监控。
最后,进入目标企业空间,在纳管的项目找到gpu-operator-resources
, 点击后找到可自定义监控界面, 即可添加自定义监控。
创建自定义监控
下载nvidia-gpu-dcgm-exporter-dashboard
并配置namespace
:
$ curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubesphere/monitoring-dashboard/master/contrib/gallery/nvidia-gpu-dcgm-exporter-dashboard.yaml
$ cat nvidia-gpu-dcgm-exporter-dashboard.yaml
----

可以直接命令行apply
或者在自定义监控面板中选择编辑模式进行导入:
正确导入后:
在上面创建的jupyter notebook
运行深度学习测试任务后,可以明显地观察到相关GPU指标变化:

GPU-Operator 常见问题
GPU-Operator 重启后无法使用
答:关于已部署正常运行的gpu-operator和 AI 应用的集群,重启 GPU 主机后会出现没法用上 GPU 的情况,极有可能是因为插件还没加载,应用优先进行了载入,就会导致这种问题。这时,只需要优先保证插件运行正常,然后重新部署应用即可。
Nvidia k8s-device-plugin 与 GPU-Operator 方案对比?
我之前针对GPU使用的是 https://github.com/NVIDIA/k8s-device-plugin 和 https://github.com/NVIDIA/gpu-monitoring-tools 相结合的方案来监控 GPU,请问这个方案与 GPU-Operator的方案相比,孰优孰劣一些?
答:个人认为 GPU-Operator 更简单易用,其自带 GPU 注入能力不需要构建专用的 OS,并且支持节点发现与可插拔,能够自动化集成管理 GPU 所需的 NVIDIA 设备组件,相对来说还是很省事的。
