Static Remote Deployment

Before installing Aizen remote components, check that each GPU node has the required software installed on it, with the addition of NVIDIA drivers and libraries. See Software Requirements. (Ingress infrastructure is not required on a GPU node.)

The assumption is that the GPU nodes have Kubernetes installed along with the Container Storage Interface (CSI) and gpu operator.

1. Create the namespace aizen for the Aizen remote components by running this command:

   kubectl create ns aizen

2. Label the GPU nodes:

   kubectl label node <nodename or ip> aizen.com/gpu.deploy=true

3. Using the Docker Hub credentials that you obtained for the Aizen microservice images (Getting Credentials for the Aizen Microservice Images), create a Kubernetes Secret for accessing the Aizen images:

   kubectl create secret docker-registry aizenrepo-creds 
   --docker-username=aizencorp 
   --docker-password=<YOUR DOCKER CREDENTIALS> 
   -n aizen

4. Deploy the remote components by running the script for Aizen remote deployment. See the Script for Aizen Remote Deployment below.

Checking the Deployment Status of the Remote Components

Check the status of all the remote components by running this command:

kubectl -n aizen get pods

If any of the remote components are not in a Running state, see Installation Issues
