Summary

Documents what live clusters showed about NVCRE's cluster-scoped objects and release ownership (install, upgrade, second release, uninstall, reinstall), what happens to the CRDs and to an edited LogProfile on upgrade, and that cre-training-goodput ran to completion against the registry's Kubeflow Trainer 2.2.0.

Motivation / Context

Phase 1 of the NVCRE epic asks for the opt-in path to be qualified on a real cluster. The ownership behavior of the fixed-name LogProfile and ClusterRole objects was unconfirmed and undocumented; this records what was observed rather than what the chart layout implies.

Fixes: N/A
Related: #2685

This PR is independent of #3251 and targets main. The observations were made on NVCRE chart v0.7.0 (with the pre-release controller main-bfd3210), which main does not yet pin; the text says so.

Type of Change

  • Documentation update

Component(s) Affected

  • Docs/examples (docs/, examples/)

Implementation Notes

One new subsection under "Enabling NVCRE" in docs/user/component-catalog.md, plus one sentence in the Trainer-version paragraph.

On EKS (Kubernetes v1.35, Helm deployer, Helm 4.3.0, chart v0.7.0 with the pre-release controller main-bfd3210):

  • 4 LogProfiles, 24 ClusterRoles and 2 ClusterRoleBindings carry Helm ownership for release nvcre, with no helm.sh/resource-policy.
  • An in-place upgrade (revision 1 to 2) left them and the 7 CRDs unchanged.
  • A second release with the shipped values fails before creating anything, on ClusterRole nvcre-bandwidthmeasurement-admin-role (checked with helm install --dry-run=server).
  • Uninstall removes the LogProfiles and RBAC objects and leaves the 7 CRDs.
  • Reinstall goes through apply-crds.sh's "no release but CRDs remain" branch and recreates the same objects.

On a Kind cluster (Kubernetes v1.36):

  • helmfile 1.7.2, Helm 3.17.1: upgrading v0.6.0 to v0.7.0 with helmfile sync leaves the old CRDs (startupStallTimeoutSeconds missing from certifications.nvcre.nvidia.com); the documented CRD-apply command, with only CHART and VERSION set, adds it.
  • Chart installed directly, v0.6.0 to v0.7.0 after editing nccl-bandwidth: Helm 3.17.1 keeps the edit and adds the new networkTransport pattern; Helm 4.3.0 fails with a field-manager conflict; Helm 4.3.0 with --force-conflicts succeeds and reverts the edit.

Explicitly not covered, and stated as such in the text: the terraform, argocd, argocd-helm and flux deployers, uninstall while a Certification is running, a Helm 3 install upgraded with Helm 4, and a second release with a changed fullnameOverride.

Testing

make check-docs-filenames check-docs-mdx check-docs-mdx-parse check-docs-yaml check-docs-shell

All five pass. I did not run the full make lint or make qualify; the change is docs-only. The live observations were made on a UAT cluster that has since been torn down, and on a local Kind cluster, so they are not reproducible from this PR alone.

Risk Assessment

  • Low — Isolated change, well-tested, easy to revert

Rollout notes: N/A. Documentation only.

Checklist

  • Tests pass locally (make test with -race)
  • Linter passes (make lint)
  • I did not skip/disable tests to make CI green
  • I added/updated tests for new functionality
  • I updated docs if user-facing behavior changed
  • Changes follow existing patterns in the codebase
  • Commits are signed off and cryptographically signed (git commit -s -S) — GPG signing info

📝 Walkthrough

The component catalog records a live EKS H100 Trainer run using chart v0.7.0 and controller main-bfd3210, including its completed goodput ratio and constraint. It also documents fixed-name cluster-scoped objects, their upgrade, uninstall, and reinstall behavior, conflicts with a second release, Helm client outcomes, a Helmfile observation, and scenarios not tested.

Explanation

The title "docs(nvcre): record release ownership of cluster-scoped objects" matches the main change: a new documentation subsection on how cluster-scoped LogProfile, ClusterRole/ClusterRoleBinding, and CRD objects are owned and handled across install, upgrade, second release, uninstall, and reinstall. It is specific and follows a conventional commit style. The title does not mention the Trainer-version sentence or the Helm 3 versus Helm 4 edit behavior, but those are secondary details.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description states the documented subject (cluster-scoped objects, release ownership, CRDs, LogProfile edits on upgrade, and the cre-training-goodput run against Kubeflow Trainer 2.2.0). It also gives the files touched, the live EKS and Kind observations, the stated exclusions, the checks run, and the risk level. It is directly related to the changeset.

The chart creates cluster-scoped objects with fixed names: four `LogProfile` resources (`megatron-bridge`, `megatron-training`, `nccl-bandwidth`, `nccl-loopback`), 24 `ClusterRole`s, and two `ClusterRoleBinding`s. `fullnameOverride: nvcre` in the shipped values is what fixes the RBAC names, and `LogProfile` names are fixed by the chart regardless. Every one carries Helm ownership annotations for the release `nvcre` and none carries `helm.sh/resource-policy`. Because of that, a Helm release owns them for its whole lifetime:

- **Upgrade** keeps them in place. A revision 1 to revision 2 upgrade left the same four `LogProfile`s, 26 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs.

Limit the upgrade claim to the tested upgrade.

The bullet says upgrades keep these resources in place, but the supplied evidence covers one revision 1-to-2 upgrade. Qualify the statement so readers do not treat it as a guarantee across chart revisions.

The PR objective also describes one observed upgrade.

Suggested wording
-- **Upgrade** keeps them in place. A revision 1 to revision 2 upgrade left the same four `LogProfile`s, 26 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs.
+- **Upgrade:** In the observed revision 1-to-2 upgrade, the same four `LogProfile`s, 26 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs remained in place.

- **Upgrade** keeps them in place. A revision 1 to revision 2 upgrade left the same four `LogProfile`s, 26 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs.
- **A second release** with the shipped values cannot coexist, even in another namespace. Installing it fails before creating anything, with Helm reporting that the first cluster-scoped object it reaches (`ClusterRole nvcre-bandwidthmeasurement-admin-role`) already belongs to release `nvcre`. The `LogProfile` names carry no release prefix, so changing `fullnameOverride` to rename the RBAC objects would leave those names to collide; that case was not tested.
- **Uninstall** deletes the `LogProfile`s and all RBAC objects, and leaves the seven CRDs behind, as Helm does for anything in a chart's `crds/` directory. The `nccl-bandwidth` `LogProfile` is what the NCCL check's parse rules come from, so a cluster that has uninstalled the release has the CRDs but no profile.
- **Editing a shipped `LogProfile`** changes what the next upgrade does, and the answer depends on the Helm client. The v0.7.0 chart adds a `networkTransport` pattern to `nccl-bandwidth`, which the NCCL check's transport assertion relies on. With Helm 3.17.1, an edit to `spec.patterns.bandwidthResult.example` survived a v0.6.0 to v0.7.0 upgrade and the new pattern was still added. With Helm 4.3.0, which applies server-side, the same upgrade failed with `UPGRADE FAILED: conflict occurred while applying object /nccl-bandwidth` naming the editing field manager, and the profile was left without `networkTransport`. Re-running with `helm upgrade --force-conflicts` succeeded, added `networkTransport`, and reverted the edit to the chart's value. The `LogProfile` schema is closed: a pattern name the chart does not define is rejected at edit time with `unknown field`, so only the fields the chart sets can be edited.

Align the PR scope with the documented test claims.

The PR description says that edited LogProfile persistence and other deployers were not tested. However, the documentation states that the Helm 3/Helm 4 LogProfile upgrade test and a separate Helmfile CRD-upgrade test were performed. If these runs occurred, update the PR description. Otherwise, remove or qualify the claims.

Force-pushed while still a draft to remove the stack: this PR no longer carries #3251's two commits and now targets main. Old head 19b6a2793, new head 3fdc4803b; the three docs commits are unchanged except that the Trainer paragraph keeps main's v0.6.0 wording and adds only the live-run observation, labelled as v0.7.0 with the pre-release controller. Inline comments anchored to the old SHA may show as outdated.

Prerequisites: NVIDIA GPU Operator and cert-manager, both inherited from `base.yaml` by every stock recipe, plus Kubeflow Trainer, which is not — see the fragment above.

NVCRE v0.6.0 expects Kubeflow Trainer **v2.2.1** — it pins `kubeflowTrainerVersion = "v2.2.1"` and its `setup status` reports the 2.2.0 that the registry defaults to as unsupported. The expectation did not move between v0.2.0 and v0.6.0. No functional break is known between the two versions: the CRD delta is documentation text plus one embedded PodSpec field NVCRE does not set.

Mark this as an out-of-band run, not a registry qualification result.

The registry path has no cre-training-goodput qualification for EKS/H100 and skips before creating a Certification. Because this sentence reports the registry’s Trainer and a passing constraint, readers can interpret it as a qualified result. State the run scope explicitly.

The chart creates cluster-scoped objects with fixed names: four `LogProfile` resources (`megatron-bridge`, `megatron-training`, `nccl-bandwidth`, `nccl-loopback`), 25 `ClusterRole`s, and three `ClusterRoleBinding`s (v0.8.2, rendered and installed on EKS; v0.7.0 had 24 and two, and the third binding is `nvcre-run-rolebinding`). `fullnameOverride: nvcre` in the shipped values is what fixes the RBAC names, and `LogProfile` names are fixed by the chart regardless. Every one carries Helm ownership annotations for the release `nvcre` and none carries `helm.sh/resource-policy`. Because of that, a Helm release owns them for its whole lifetime:

- **Upgrade** keeps them in place. On v0.7.0, a revision 1 to revision 2 upgrade left the same four `LogProfile`s, 26 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs; a fresh v0.8.2 install creates the same four `LogProfile`s, 28 RBAC objects, and seven CRDs.
- **A second release** with the shipped values cannot coexist, even in another namespace. Installing it fails before creating anything, with Helm reporting that the first cluster-scoped object it reaches (`ClusterRole nvcre-bandwidthmeasurement-admin-role`) already belongs to release `nvcre`. The `LogProfile` names carry no release prefix, so changing `fullnameOverride` to rename the RBAC objects would leave those names to collide; that case was not tested.

Qualify the second-release result as a dry run.

The supplied observation is a server-side dry run, but this bullet says that installing a second release fails before creating anything. A dry run does not establish the resource-creation behavior of a real install. Rewrite it as “A server-side dry run of a second release...” or document an actual install result.

Review comment at @docs/user/component-catalog.md at line 1125:
Qualify the second-release observation in the “A second release” bullet as a
server-side dry run rather than asserting that an actual install fails. Preserve
the reported Helm ownership conflict and clarify that the dry run does not
establish real-install behavior.

…ved on EKS

Documents what a live EKS H100 cluster showed for the NVCRE chart v0.7.0 under the Helm deployer: the fixed-name LogProfiles and ClusterRoles are owned by the release, a second release collides on the first cluster-scoped name, uninstall removes them while the CRDs remain, and reinstall recreates them identically through apply-crds.sh. Also records that cre-training-goodput ran to completion against the registry's Trainer 2.2.0. Untested cases are listed in the text.

Rebased onto current main (which now carries the #3384 sweep), as the up-to-date-branch gate requires: 19df91574 -> 8d3cf114e. Content is unchanged and the diff adds no references to the instance configuration or networking that #3384 is removing.
