If a Helm Chart was released to NVAIE, then UCS alwasys tried to pull the Helm Chart from NVAIE when using the internal build only, even if a new version was published and not yet released to NVAIE.
UCS Studio fails to start due to circular dependency import
New Features
NGC has deprecated the NGC API KEY. UCS Tools users no longer need to run the command to set the NGC personal key; therefore, this command is no longer present: “ucf_ms_builder_cli registry repo -p set-personal-key”
NGC Personal Key is now to be used for all NGC related access. User must use “ucf_ms_builder_cli registry repo -a set-api-key” as it was done pre-computex( before the 24.06.5 release ), however, user MUST use NGC Personal key instead of deprecated NGC API key.
The NGC Personal Key MUST include the NGC Private Registry and NGC Catalog scopes selected when creating the key and the key should be created while the user has the nv-ucf org selected.
24.06.5
This release was created to support publishing artifacts to NGC Public Catalog and NGC Product Catalog for internal use.
New Features
Adds support for NGC Personal Key with new command “ucf_ms_builder_cli registry repo -p set-personal-key”. This must be used in additon to setting the NGC API Key via “ucf_ms_builder_cli registry repo -a set-api-key”. The personal key works with NGC Catalog.
2024.03 2.5 (24.03.5)
Bug Fixes
Updated logging such that more detail is provided upon errors
SemVer Pre-release versions are now supported in Helm Charts and MS specifications. Examples include 1.0.0-alpha.1, 1.0.0-rc.1, etc.
In the ucf.k8s.service component, user can now set the ‘port’ value to a parameter defined in the manifest.yaml’s ‘params’ block, e.g.
port: $params.servicePortStatefulSets now must use the new parameter
statefulSetServiceNameto set the service name, which in turn will help set the K8s resource StatefulSet.spec.serviceName field; see example.
New Features
UCF Tools can now deploy apps to NVCF
Add support for HorizontalPodAutoscaler in k8s deployment and statefulsets
Microservices in a UCS App can now interface with the NVIDIA k8s RAG Operator to implicitly connect to and deploy NeMo microservices
The same microservice can now be used multiple times in the same UCS App (see here) and uses the feature of Helm Chart aliasing
