NeMo Operator Installation

When you install the entire NeMo platform or set up a NeMo Customizer workflow with NeMo Data Store and NeMo Entity Store, you need to install the NeMo Operator microservice. This microservice manages custom resources around LLM training workload for NeMo Customizer jobs.

This page provides information on prerequisites and configuration tips for installing NeMo Operator.

Tip

For an end-to-end deployment of the NeMo platform, see the Install NeMo Microservices Helm Chart.

Prerequisites

Before installing NeMo Operator, makes sure that you have prepared the following:

Storage

• Access to an NFS-backed Persistent Volume that supports ReadWriteMany access mode. The NeMo Operator microservice dynamically provisions NFS-backed persistent volumes using Kubernetes storage classes. You must create a storage class before installing the NeMo Operator Helm chart.

Kubernetes

• Secrets:

  • Database credentials

  • NGC Image pull credentials

• An available StorageClass for the NeMo Data Store.

There are no additional configurations you need to set for NeMo Operator.
