Launch NVIDIA NGC notebooks

This guide describes how you can create Nvidia NGC Jupyter Notebooks with Charmed Kubeflow (CKF).

Deploy the dependencies

Deploy the charms required for notebook integration with NGC images:

juju deploy ngc-integrator --channel=latest/edge --trust
juju deploy resource-dispatcher --channel=latest/edge --trust

Add the required relation between the deployed charms:

juju relate ngc-integrator:pod-defaults resource-dispatcher:pod-defaults

Wait until the charms are in active status, which can be monitored with:

juju status --watch 5s
