Node Feature Discovery

# Deployment with NFD Operator

## Table of contents

The Node Feature Discovery Operator automates installation, configuration and updates of NFD using a specific NodeFeatureDiscovery custom resource. This also provides good support for managing NFD as a dependency of other operators.

## Deployment

Deployment using the Node Feature Discovery Operator is recommended to be done via operatorhub.io.

1. You need to have OLM installed. If you don't, take a look at the latest release for detailed instructions.

2. Install the operator:

       kubectl create -f https://operatorhub.io/install/nfd-operator.yaml

3. Create `NodeFeatureDiscovery` object (in `nfd` namespace here):

       cat << EOF | kubectl apply -f -
       apiVersion: v1
       kind: Namespace
       metadata:
         name: nfd
       ---
       apiVersion: nfd.kubernetes.io/v1
       kind: NodeFeatureDiscovery
       metadata:
         name: my-nfd-deployment
         namespace: nfd
       spec:
         operand:
           image: gcr.io/k8s-staging-nfd/node-feature-discovery:master
           imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
       EOF

In order to deploy the minimal image you need to use

      image: gcr.io/k8s-staging-nfd/node-feature-discovery:master-minimal

in the `NodeFeatureDiscovery` object above.

## Uninstallation

If you followed the deployment instructions above you can simply do:

    kubectl -n nfd delete NodeFeatureDiscovery my-nfd-deployment

Optionally, you can also remove the namespace:

    kubectl delete ns nfd

See the node-feature-discovery-operator and OLM project documentation for instructions for uninstalling the operator and operator lifecycle manager, respectively.
