NVIDIA Minerva gathers metric, log, and topology telemetry from GPUs, NICs, DPUs, scale-up NVLink switches, scale-out Ethernet switches, north-south Ethernet switches, NCCL, schedulers, and AI workloads.
Configuration requirements for each data source are in the Reference Configuration Package under the endpoint-integrations directory. Each data source within the directory includes a README.md file that includes support information, setup instructions, and troubleshooting tips. To obtain the Reference Configuration Package, contact your NVIDIA sales or support representative.

DOCA Telemetry Service |
NICs, DPUs, compute nodes |
NIC and DPU metrics (ethtool, sysfs); compute node syslogs |
OTEL; rsyslog |
|
|
Cumulus Linux |
Scale-out and N/S Ethernet switches |
Interface metrics, platform statistics, BGP state, LLDP; switch syslogs; packet drop events (WJH) |
OTEL; rsyslog; gNMI dial-out |
|
|
NMX-Telemetry |
NVLink switches (NMX-T) |
NVLink switch telemetry; no configuration required on NMX-T — telemetry is on by default |
Prometheus scrape |
|
|
Slurm |
Job scheduler |
Job events and node state events; Slurm daemon logs |
OTLP; rsyslog |
|
|
NCCL |
GPU-to-GPU fabric (distributed training) |
Per-device, per-collective, and event telemetry via the NCCL Net Inspector Profiler Plugin; provides visibility into fabric health, collective-level performance, and transport reliability |
OTEL |
