GPU MEMORY MONITOR HOW TO
GPU MEMORY MONITOR INSTALL

We will need a home for our new GPU monitoring data. Okay, let's get the Elastic Stack up and running. Sudo dpkg -i metricbeat-7.10.b # 7.10.2 is the version number Have a quick check on for the latest version of Metricbeat and adjust the version number in the commands below.

Sudo env 'PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' make install OK, it’s time to finish up the NVIDIA setup by installing NVIDIA’s gpu-monitoring-tools from GitHub. To build NVIDIA’s gpu-monitoring-tools, we’ll need to install Golang. Sudo apt-key adv -fetch-keys $distribution/x86_64/7fa2af80.pubĪfter installation, we should be able to see our GPU details by running the nvidia-smi command. Remove the trailing > from $distribution. So step 1 in the Getting Started Guide would be:Įcho 'deb $distribution/x86_64 /' | sudo tee /etc/apt//cuda.list The response tells us that X86_64 is our architecture. We can find our architecture using the uname command. Note: While following the guide, pay special attention replacing the parameter with our own. Let’s start by installing the NVIDIA Datacenter Manager per the installation section of NVIDIA’s DCGM Getting Started Guide for Ubuntu 18.04.

For this post, we are using an instance running on Genesis Cloud. NVIDIA GPUs are available from many cloud providers like Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services (AWS). AMD and other GPU types use different Linux drivers and monitoring tools, so we’ll have to cover them in a separate post. To get NVIDIA GPU metrics up and running, we will need to build NVIDIA GPU monitoring tools from source code (Go).

GPU MEMORY MONITOR HOW TO

With that in mind, let's take a look at how to use Elastic Observability together with NVIDIA’s GPU monitoring tools to observe and optimize GPU performance. And they are at the heart of most high-performance computing systems, making the monitoring of GPU performance in today's data centers just as important as monitoring CPU performance. Today, GPUs are used to train neural networks, simulate computational fluid dynamics, mine Bitcoin, and process workloads in data centers. Graphical processing units, or GPUs, aren’t just for PC gaming.
