Adding a GPU worker group
Prerequisites:
- CPU, GPU, RAM, Storage, and Instance quota sufficient for the desired new worker group configuration. If you want to use Autoscale, the GPU quota must cover the maximum number of additional nodes desired.
- One network subnet: the network used for Kubernetes nodes must have a Static IP Pool.
The steps are as follows:
Step 1: Access the FPT Cloud portal at console.fptcloud.com, navigate to the Kubernetes section, click the cluster you want to modify, go to Node Pools, and click "Edit Workers".
Step 2: Click "Add worker group" to add a new worker group.
In addition to the standard Kubernetes initialization settings, configure the GPU options in the Worker Group:
- Select instance type: GPU
- Select GPU type (A30, A100, etc.)
- Select the GPU sharing configuration (None / Single / Mixed)
- Select the GPU type configuration (CPU / RAM / GPU RAM)
Step 3: Review the initialization information and click Save.
Step 4: Monitor the status of the new worker group being added to the Kubernetes cluster. Once the status is Succeeded (Running), proceed to deploy your applications.
