From f457f972e6e3665ae830238b972d90941ca41364 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Terry Kong Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 23:36:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/6] infra: nvkind GPU cluster with KAI scheduler, KubeRay, and examples Local K8s GPU dev environment using nvkind (NVIDIA's kind wrapper): - nvkind cluster setup scripts (install-nvkind.sh, create-cluster.sh) - Custom config template with extraMounts for dev code mounting - Helmfile with kind/prod environments (device plugin vs GPU operator) - KAI scheduler for gang scheduling, KubeRay for RayCluster management - Example manifests: gang-scheduled pods, RayClusters, SFT RayJobs - SETUP.md with prerequisites, quick start, and architecture docs Tested: SFT RayJob (train/loss 4.06 < 5.9), KAI all-or-nothing gang scheduling, two simultaneous 1-GPU SFT jobs. --- infra/examples/kai-queue.yaml | 40 +++++ infra/examples/kai_scheduled_pods.yaml | 47 ++++++ infra/examples/kai_scheduled_rayclusters.yaml | 111 +++++++++++++ infra/examples/kai_scheduled_sft.yaml | 127 +++++++++++++++ infra/examples/raycluster-blocker.yaml | 17 ++ infra/examples/sft_rayjob.yaml | 83 ++++++++++ infra/helm/helmfile.yaml | 70 ++++++++ infra/helm/values/gpu-operator.yaml | 4 + infra/helm/values/kai-scheduler.yaml | 2 + infra/helm/values/kuberay-operator.yaml | 2 + infra/helm/values/nvidia-device-plugin.yaml | 18 +++ infra/kind/SETUP.md | 149 ++++++++++++++++++ infra/kind/create-cluster.sh | 72 +++++++++ infra/kind/get-helm.sh | 36 +++++ infra/kind/get-kubectl.sh | 71 +++++++++ infra/kind/install-nvkind.sh | 43 +++++ infra/kind/nvkind-config-template.yaml | 52 ++++++ infra/kind/nvkind-config-values-dev.yaml | 7 + infra/kind/nvkind-config-values.yaml | 2 + 19 files changed, 953 insertions(+) create mode 100644 infra/examples/kai-queue.yaml create mode 100644 infra/examples/kai_scheduled_pods.yaml create mode 100644 infra/examples/kai_scheduled_rayclusters.yaml create mode 100644 infra/examples/kai_scheduled_sft.yaml create mode 100644 infra/examples/raycluster-blocker.yaml create mode 100644 infra/examples/sft_rayjob.yaml create mode 100644 infra/helm/helmfile.yaml create mode 100644 infra/helm/values/gpu-operator.yaml create mode 100644 infra/helm/values/kai-scheduler.yaml create mode 100644 infra/helm/values/kuberay-operator.yaml create mode 100644 infra/helm/values/nvidia-device-plugin.yaml create mode 100644 infra/kind/SETUP.md create mode 100644 infra/kind/create-cluster.sh create mode 100644 infra/kind/get-helm.sh create mode 100644 infra/kind/get-kubectl.sh create mode 100644 infra/kind/install-nvkind.sh create mode 100644 infra/kind/nvkind-config-template.yaml create mode 100644 infra/kind/nvkind-config-values-dev.yaml create mode 100644 infra/kind/nvkind-config-values.yaml diff --git a/infra/examples/kai-queue.yaml b/infra/examples/kai-queue.yaml new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..1ca9912ea1 --- /dev/null +++ b/infra/examples/kai-queue.yaml @@ -0,0 +1,40 @@ +# KAI Scheduler queue hierarchy for local dev. +# Unlimited quotas — appropriate for single-user kind clusters. +apiVersion: scheduling.run.ai/v2 +kind: Queue +metadata: + name: department-1 +spec: + resources: + gpu: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 + cpu: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 + memory: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 +--- +apiVersion: scheduling.run.ai/v2 +kind: Queue +metadata: + name: team-a +spec: + parentQueue: department-1 + resources: + gpu: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 + cpu: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 + memory: + quota: -1 + limit: -1 + overQuotaWeight: 1 diff --git a/infra/examples/kai_scheduled_pods.yaml b/infra/examples/kai_scheduled_pods.yaml new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..94a7a83635 --- /dev/null +++ b/infra/examples/kai_scheduled_pods.yaml @@ -0,0 +1,47 @@ +# Gang-schedule two GPU pods via KAI scheduler. +# Both pods are scheduled simultaneously or not at all. +apiVersion: scheduling.run.ai/v2alpha2 +kind: PodGroup +metadata: + name: gpu-test-group +spec: + minMember: 2 + queue: team-a +--- +apiVersion: v1 +kind: Pod +metadata: + name: gpu-test-0 + labels: + kai.scheduler/queue: team-a + annotations: + pod-group-name: gpu-test-group +spec: + schedulerName: kai-scheduler + restartPolicy: Never + containers: + -

peer-watcher.py: pure Python sidecar (no deps beyond stdlib), deployed as a ConfigMap volume mount on each head pod - Monitors peer RayCluster status via K8s API (polls every 10s) - Tears down after MAX_PEER_FAILURES (default 3) consecutive failures - Also monitors ConfigMap "error" key for application-level error signaling - Handles transient K8s API errors as failures (not false-healthy) - Added signal_error() to K8sEndpointRegistry - Updated disagg manifests with peer-watcher sidecar containers - Updated RBAC with "delete" verb for rayclusters Tested: deleting either cluster triggers teardown of both within ~10s. --- infra/examples/disagg_gym_raycluster.yaml | 40 +++++- infra/examples/disagg_rl_raycluster.yaml | 42 +++++- infra/examples/endpoint-registry-rbac.yaml | 2 +- infra/examples/peer-watcher.py | 160 +++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 232 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) create mode 100644 infra/examples/peer-watcher.py diff --git a/infra/examples/disagg_gym_raycluster.yaml b/infra/examples/disagg_gym_raycluster.yaml index 50b30cf779..2119e1703f 100644 --- a/infra/examples/disagg_gym_raycluster.yaml +++ b/infra/examples/disagg_gym_raycluster.yaml @@ -1,12 +1,11 @@ -# Disaggregated Gym RayCluster. +# Disaggregated Gym RayCluster with peer-watcher sidecar. # Runs NeMo Gym servers as a standalone HTTP service. # Uses K8s ConfigMap endpoint registry for service discovery with the RL cluster. +# The peer-watcher sidecar monitors raycluster-rl and tears down both clusters +# if the RL cluster fails or the application signals an error. # # Prerequisites: # kubectl apply -f endpoint-registry-rbac.yaml -# -# The Gym server registers its address and waits for the RL cluster to -# register vLLM URLs, all via the shared ConfigMap. apiVersion: ray.io/v1 kind: RayCluster metadata: @@ -39,5 +38,36 @@ spec: name: gcs-server -

Validates at CRD level (not pod) since KubeRay operator creates pods. Optional Policy 2 for user→queue access control via ConfigMap. - kube-prometheus-stack: Prometheus + Grafana for fairshare monitoring. Pre-built Grafana dashboard showing GPU allocation vs fair share, preemption events, and scheduling latency per queue. - ServiceMonitors for KAI scheduler, binder, and queue-controller. - Example queue configs: - kai-queue.yaml: 2-GPU kind cluster (2 teams, equal quotas) - kai-queue-prod.yaml: 256-GPU prod (3 departments, 6 teams) - preemptMinRuntime: 4h (protect long training runs from priority preemption) - reclaimMinRuntime: 15m (fast fairness reclaim of over-quota resources) - SETUP.md: fairshare docs, preempt vs reclaim explanation, Grafana access. Tested: Kyverno rejects RayCluster without queue label, accepts with.

Verified: Grafana queries return live data. - New: extensions/k8s_cli/ — standalone Python CLI (pip installable): - nrl-k8s fairshare — show queue config (quota, limit, weight, priority) - nrl-k8s occupancy — show GPU allocation per node and per queue - nrl-k8s submit — submit gang-scheduled RayJob with optional --segment-size for topology-aware scheduling - 6 unit tests (mocked K8s API), all passing - Add TODO for NVL72 topology testing with links to relevant PRs/issues Tested: KAI v0.14.0 gang scheduling works, CLI commands verified against live cluster, Grafana dashboard loads and queries return data. --- extensions/k8s_cli/pyproject.toml | 19 ++ extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/__init__.py | 0 extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/cli.py | 149 ++++++++++ extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/k8s_client.py | 270 +++++++++++++++++++ extensions/k8s_cli/tests/__init__.py | 0 extensions/k8s_cli/tests/test_k8s_client.py | 209 ++++++++++++++ infra/examples/kai-grafana-dashboard.yaml | 21 +- infra/helm/helmfile.yaml | 2 +- infra/kind/SETUP.md | 13 +- 9 files changed, 667 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/pyproject.toml create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/__init__.py create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/cli.py create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/k8s_client.py create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/tests/__init__.py create mode 100644 extensions/k8s_cli/tests/test_k8s_client.py diff --git a/extensions/k8s_cli/pyproject.toml b/extensions/k8s_cli/pyproject.toml new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..b9ef1e2094 --- /dev/null +++ b/extensions/k8s_cli/pyproject.toml @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +[project] +name = "nrl-k8s" +version = "0.1.0" +description = "CLI for managing nemo-rl workloads on Kubernetes with KAI scheduler" +requires-python = ">=3.10" +dependencies = ["kubernetes>=28.0", "click>=8.0", "rich>=13.0"] + +[project.optional-dependencies] +dev = ["pytest>=8.0", "pytest-mock>=3.0"] + +[project.scripts] +nrl-k8s = "nrl_k8s.cli:main" + +[build-system] +requires = ["hatchling"] +build-backend = "hatchling.build" + +[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel] +packages = ["src/nrl_k8s"] diff --git a/extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/__init__.py b/extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/__init__.py new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..e69de29bb2 diff --git a/extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/cli.py b/extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/cli.py new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..7518c1bb0a --- /dev/null +++ b/extensions/k8s_cli/src/nrl_k8s/cli.py @@ -0,0 +1,149 @@ +# Copyright (c) 2026, NVIDIA CORPORATION.

Need to test on an actual NVL72 cluster: + +- **Confirm `--segment=N` equivalent works**: KAI's `subGroups` with per-subgroup `topologyConstraint.requiredTopologyLevel: "rack"` should be the equivalent of Slurm's `--segment=N`. Each subgroup of N nodes is constrained to one rack. Unclear if this works correctly for cross-rack scheduling (e.g., `--segment=16` with 32 total nodes = 2 racks). +- **Auto-segmentation not yet implemented**: The design doc at [`docs/developer/designs/segmented-subgroups/`](https://github.com/kai-scheduler/KAI-Scheduler/blob/main/docs/developer/designs/segmented-subgroups/README.md) proposes `kai.scheduler/segment-size` annotation for automatic subgroup creation, but it depends on "Replica-Type SubGrouping" which isn't shipped yet. See [Issue #1189](https://github.com/kai-scheduler/KAI-Scheduler/issues/1189) and [PR #1127](https://github.com/kai-scheduler/KAI-Scheduler/pull/1127) (minSubGroup field, still open). +- **Test with our k8s CLI**: The `nrl-k8s submit` command (see `extensions/k8s_cli/`) should support `--segment-size` that auto-generates the PodGroup subgroups until KAI ships native support. + ## TODO: Log persistence Currently, logs are lost when RayJob pods are cleaned up (`ttlSecondsAfterFinished`). Two levels of log persistence are needed:
