DGX Spark: мониторинг unified memory, когда NVML и dcgm‑exporter молчат

Свежепоставленный мониторинг на DGX Spark. Открываю NVIDIA‑дашборд в Grafana — половина memory‑панелей пустые, прямые линии по нулю. Сначала кажется, что что‑то не настроил. Через полчаса доходит: это не у меня сломалось, это NVML на GB10 так работает.Это та область, где на GB10 половина стандартного observability‑стека просто не работает: NVML отдаёт [N/A] на memory.used и memory.total, dcgm‑exporter не ставится, nvtop в memory‑колонке показывает пустоту.

For most data engineering teams, managing pipeline reliability often means waiting for an alert, manually tracing failures across distributed jobs and clusters, and fixing problems after they've already hit the business.
