DCGM-Exporter is a tool based on the Go APIs to NVIDIA DCGM that allows users to gather GPU metrics and understand workload behavior or monitor GPUs in clusters. DCGM Exporter is written in Go and exposes GPU metrics at an HTTP endpoint (/metrics) for monitoring solutions such as Prometheus.
To test the functionality of NVIDIA DCGM Exporter Image, it requires an environment with connected GPUs. If you have connected GPUs, here's one way to use this image:
Install Docker Engine and configure it with your credentials to pull image
Run the image:
Step 1: Add and Update Helm Repository Add the NVIDIA DCGM Exporter repository and update it to ensure you have access to the latest charts.
Step 2: Install NVIDIA DCGM Exporter
Install NVIDIA DCGM Exporter using Helm with the specified version, namespace, and optional configuration settings.
Step 3: Verify Installation

Chainguard's free tier of Starter container images are built with Wolfi, our minimal Linux undistro.
All other Chainguard Containers are built with Chainguard OS, Chainguard's minimal Linux operating system designed to produce container images that meet the requirements of a more secure software supply chain.
The main features of Chainguard Containers include:
For cases where you need container images with shells and package managers to build or debug, most Chainguard Containers come paired with a development, or -dev
, variant.
In all other cases, including Chainguard Containers tagged as :latest
or with a specific version number, the container images include only an open-source application and its runtime dependencies. These minimal container images typically do not contain a shell or package manager.
Although the -dev
container image variants have similar security features as their more minimal versions, they include additional software that is typically not necessary in production environments. We recommend using multi-stage builds to copy artifacts from the -dev
variant into a more minimal production image.
To improve security, Chainguard Containers include only essential dependencies. Need more packages? Chainguard customers can use Custom Assembly to add packages, either through the Console, chainctl
, or API.
To use Custom Assembly in the Chainguard Console: navigate to the image you'd like to customize in your Organization's list of images, and click on the Customize image button at the top of the page.
