Release Notes#

Release notes and known issues for Nsight Operator.

Current Release (26.2.1)#

What’s New#

Nsight Operator 26.2.1 introduces NVIDIA Dynamo profiling, OpenTelemetry trace capture, an in-cluster analysis service, OAuth2 / TLS on the gateway, CLI ergonomics, and a brand-new web UI. See the NGC collection announcement for the full release.

NVIDIA Dynamo Support#

  • Dynamo request traceability from the HTTP entrypoint through KVBM, PyTorch, and CUDA calls.

  • Batch-request tracing with CUDA API correlation, including late NVTX projection for accurate span-to-kernel mapping.

See Quick Start Example (NVIDIA Dynamo).

OpenTelemetry Support#

Capture OpenTelemetry traces and view them alongside Nsight Systems profiles. Enable per-profile with otlpMirroringEnabled: true on a NsightOperatorProfileConfig. See NsightOtelCollector and OTLPProxyConfig.

Analysis Service#

Run Nsight Systems recipes inside the cluster without downloading profiles onto a machine with Nsight Systems installed. See Analysis Guide and NsightAnalysis.

Operator / Injection Enhancements#

CLI Improvements#

  • New analysis command group in nsight_operator.py for running recipes and fetching their outputs.

  • New status command that prints the current session and connected collection agents.

  • Improved download: reports are now named <tag>_<process_name>_<hostname>_<unique_id>.nsys-rep so they can be disambiguated at a glance.

See Nsight Cloud CLI.

Web UI#

  • Brand-new web interface for launching analyses and viewing results.

  • Analysis UI opens directly from the CLI with nsight_operator.py analysis ui.

  • Analysis reports render as interactive Jupyter notebooks at /visualizations/{report_id}; open from the CLI with nsight_operator.py analysis reports open <id>.

  • Configure, run, and view analyses per data collection.

  • Nsight Streamer integration: launch a streamer for a session directly from the Cloud UI (opens in a new browser tab).

  • Streamer instances are auto-provisioned per tenant namespace via the NsightTenantOperator.

  • Multiple streamers share a single public WebRTC port through the embedded STUNner TURN gateway (see STUNner TURN Gateway).

See Nsight Cloud UI.
