Image variants
Table of contents
NFD currently offers two variants of the container image. The "minimal" variant is currently deployed by default. Released container images are available for x86_64 and Arm64 architectures.
Minimal
This is a minimal image based on gcr.io/distroless/base and only supports running statically linked binaries.
For backwards compatibility a container image tag with suffix -minimal (e.g. registry.k8s.io/nfd/node-feature-discovery:v0.13.3-minimal) is provided.
Full
This image is based on debian:bullseye-slim and contains a full Linux system for running shell-based nfd-worker hooks and doing live debugging and diagnosis of the NFD images.
The container image tag has suffix -full (e.g. registry.k8s.io/nfd/node-feature-discovery:v0.13.3-full).
