HAMi, formerly known as 'k8s-vGPU-scheduler', is a Heterogeneous device management middleware for Kubernetes. It can manage different types of heterogeneous devices(like GPU,NPU,etc...), share heterogeneous devices among pods, make better scheduling decision based on topology of devices and schedule policies.
It aims to remove the gap between different Heterogeneous devices, and provide a unified interface for user to manage with no change to your application. Until June 2024, HAMi has been widely used around the world at a variety of industries such as Internet/Cloud/Finance/ Manufacturing. More than 40 companies or institutions are not only end users but also active contributors.
HAMi is a sandbox and landscape project of
Cloud Native Computing Foundation(CNCF),
CNAI Landscape project.
HAMi provides device virtualization for several heterogeneous devices including GPU, by supporting device sharing and device resource isolation. For the list of devices supporting device virtualization, see supported devices
- Allows partial device allocation by specifying device memory.
- Imposes a hard limit on streaming multiprocessors.
- Permits partial device allocation by specifying device core usage.
- Requires zero changes to existing programs.
A simple demostration for device isolation: A task with the following resources.
resources:
limits:
nvidia.com/gpu: 1 # requesting 1 vGPU
nvidia.com/gpumem: 3000 # Each vGPU contains 3000m device memory
will see 3G device memory inside container
HAMi consists of several components, including a unified mutatingwebhook, a unified scheduler extender, different device-plugins and different in-container virtualization technics for each heterogeneous AI devices.
The list of prerequisites for running the NVIDIA device plugin is described below:
- NVIDIA drivers >= 440
- nvidia-docker version > 2.0
- config default runtime is nvidia for containerd/docker/cri-o container runtime.
- Kubernetes version >= 1.16
- glibc >= 2.17 & glibc < 2.3.0
- kernel version >= 3.10
- helm > 3.0
First, Label your GPU nodes for scheduling with HAMi by adding the label "gpu=on". Without this label, the nodes cannot be managed by our scheduler.
kubectl label nodes {nodeid} gpu=on
Add our repo in helm
helm repo add hami-charts https://project-hami.github.io/HAMi/
Check your Kubernetes version by using the following command:
kubectl version
During installation, set the Kubernetes scheduler image version to match your Kubernetes server version. For instance, if your cluster server version is 1.16.8, use the following command for deployment:
helm install hami hami-charts/hami --set scheduler.kubeScheduler.imageTag=v1.16.8 -n kube-system
Customize your installation by adjusting the configs.
Verify your installation using the following command:
kubectl get pods -n kube-system
If both vgpu-device-plugin and vgpu-scheduler pods are in the Running state, your installation is successful. You can try examples here
HAMi-WebUI is available after HAMi v2.4
For installation guide, click here
Monitoring is automatically enabled after installation. Obtain an overview of cluster information by visiting the following URL:
http://{scheduler ip}:{monitorPort}/metrics
The default monitorPort is 31993; other values can be set using --set devicePlugin.service.httpPort during installation.
Grafana dashboard example
Note The status of a node won't be collected before you submit a task
- If you don't request vGPUs when using the device plugin with NVIDIA images all the GPUs on the machine may be exposed inside your container
- Currently, A100 MIG can be supported in only "none" and "mixed" modes.
- Tasks with the "nodeName" field cannot be scheduled at the moment; please use "nodeSelector" instead.
The project is governed by a group of Maintainers and Committers. How they are selected and govern is outlined in our Governance Document.
