# Run Nvidia's TensorRT Inference Server on omnia Clone the repo `git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/tensorrt-inference-server.git` Download models `cd tensorrt-inference-server/docs/examples/` `./fetch_models.sh` Copy models to shared NFS location `cp -rp model_repository ensemble_model_repository /home/k8sSHARE` Fix permissions on model files `chmod -R a+r /home/k8sSHARE/model_repository` ## Deploy Prometheus and Grafana Prometheus collects metrics for viewing in Grafana. Install the prometheus-operator for these components. The serviceMonitorSelectorNilUsesHelmValues flag is needed so that Prometheus can find the inference server metrics in the example release deployed below: `helm install --name example-metrics --set prometheus.prometheusSpec.serviceMonitorSelectorNilUsesHelmValues=false stable/prometheus-operator` Setup port-forward to the Grafana service for local access `kubectl port-forward service/example-metrics-grafana 8080:80` Navigate in your browser to localhost:8080 for the Grafana login page. `username=admin password=prom-operator` ## Setup TensorRT Inference Server Deployment Change to helm chart directory `cd ~/tensorrt-inference-server/deploy/single_server/` Modify `values.yaml` changing `modelRepositoryPath`
image:
  imageName: nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorrtserver:20.01-py3
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent
  #modelRepositoryPath: gs://tensorrt-inference-server-repository/model_repository
  modelRepositoryPath: /data/model_repository
  numGpus: 1
 
Modify `templates/deployment.yaml` in **bold** to add the local NFS mount:
...
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: {{ .Chart.Name }}
          image: "{{ .Values.image.imageName }}"
          imagePullPolicy: {{ .Values.image.pullPolicy }}
          volumeMounts:
            - mountPath: /data/
              name: work-volume
 ...
      volumes:
      - name: work-volume
        hostPath:
          # directory locally mounted on host
          path: /home/k8sSHARE
          type: Directory
   
   
### Deploy the inference server
cd ~/tensorrt-inference-server/deploy/single_server/
helm install --name example .
### Verify deployment
helm ls

## Setup NGC login secret for nvcr.io `kubectl create secret docker-registry --docker-server= --docker-username= --docker-password= --docker-email= ` Parameter Description: docker-registry – the name you will use for this secret docker-server – nvcr.io is the container registry for NGC docker-username – for nvcr.io this is ‘$oauthtoken’ (including quotes) docker-password – this is the API Key you obtained earlier docker-email – your NGC email address Example (you will need to generate your own oauth token) `kubectl create secret docker-registry ngc-secret --docker-server=nvcr.io --docker-username='$oauthtoken' --docker-password=clkaw309f3jfaJ002EIVCJAC0Cpcklajser90wezxc98wdn09ICJA09xjc09j09JV00JV0JVCLR0WQE8ACZz --docker-email=john@example.com` Verify your secret has been stored:
kubectl get secrets

## Run TensorRT Client `kubectl apply -f trt-client.yaml` Verify it is running:
kubectl get pod tensorrt-client 
NAME              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
tensorrt-client   1/1     Running   0          5m
Run the inception test using the client Pod. The TensorRT Inference IP Address can be found by running `kubectl get svc`
kubectl exec -it tensorrt-client -- /bin/bash -c "image_client -u 192.168.60.150:8000 -m resnet50_netdef -s INCEPTION images/mug.jpg"
Request 0, batch size 1
Image 'images/mug.jpg':
    504 (COFFEE MUG) = 0.723992
Run inception test with batch size 2 and print top 3 classifications
 kubectl exec -it tensorrt-client -- /bin/bash -c "image_client  -u 192.168.60.150:8000 -m resnet50_netdef -s INCEPTION images/ -c 3 -b 2"
