Summary

Stage the coordinated NATS removal for the Dynamo 1.4+ bump: drop global.nats.install, the NATS storage-class/node-scheduling paths, and NATS-specific test/doc/conformance references, since Dynamo 1.4+ defaults the request plane to TCP and the KV event plane to ZMQ.

Motivation / Context

Upstream Dynamo 1.4+ disables bundled NATS by default (ai-dynamo/dynamo#11951) because the request plane now defaults to TCP and the KV event plane to ZMQ. AICR currently pins dynamo-platform 1.2.1 with global.nats.install: true set explicitly, so nothing breaks on the current pin — but the next version bump needs to land together with this NATS removal, not as a bare defaultVersion change.

This is a draft. dynamo-platform 1.4.x hasn't been published to helm.ngc.nvidia.com/nvidia/ai-dynamo yet — everything here is staged with <NEW_VERSION>/<PORT> placeholders so it's ready to finish and merge the moment it ships.

Fixes: #1836
Related: N/A

Type of Change

  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Documentation update

Component(s) Affected

  • Recipe engine / data (pkg/recipe)
  • Docs/examples (docs/, examples/)
  • Other: tests/chainsaw/ai-conformance/*, tests/manifests/dynamo-vllm-smoke-test.yaml

Implementation Notes

  • recipes/components/dynamo-platform/values.yaml: removed global.nats.install: true and the nats.config.jetstream PVC block. global.nats.install is left unset so the chart's new default (false) applies; opt back in per-workload via nats: install: true if a legacy NATS transport is ever needed.
  • recipes/registry.yaml: removed the storageClassPaths entry (was NATS-only) and the two NATS nodeSelectorPaths/tolerationPaths entries under nodeScheduling.system.
  • tests/manifests/dynamo-vllm-smoke-test.yaml: updated the event-plane comment — KV events now flow ZMQ end-to-end, no NATS relay.
  • docs/integrator/eks-dynamo-networking.md: rewritten. The TCP 4222 SG rule is gone, but the TCP request plane / ZMQ KV events are still direct frontend↔worker pod-to-pod connections crossing the same GPU↔system nodegroup SG boundary, so the doc still needs a port — left as <PORT> pending verification on a real 1.4+ EKS cluster (ss -tlnp commands included inline).
  • tests/chainsaw/ai-conformance/{cluster,kind-inference-dynamo}/assert-dynamo.yaml + their chainsaw-test.yaml descriptions + tests/chainsaw/ai-conformance/README.md: removed the dynamo-platform-nats StatefulSet assertion and NATS wording. Not called out in Dynamo 1.4+ bump: bundled NATS disabled by default (TCP request plane, ZMQ KV events) #1836's listed scope, but the assertion hard-fails once NATS stops being bundled by default, so folded it into this PR.
  • Deferred to when the real chart version is known: defaultVersion/version comments (<NEW_VERSION>, 5 files), the 2× vllm-runtime:1.2.1 image tags in the smoke test, make bom-docs regeneration.

Upgrade impact for standing clusters: an in-place helm upgrade accepting the new default removes bundled NATS and drops NATS_SERVER from operator-managed workload specs, which triggers rolling restarts. Fresh bundle installs are unaffected. Pass --set global.nats.install=true during the upgrade to opt out and avoid the restart.

Testing

# Not yet runnable — dynamo-platform 1.4.x isn't published, so `make qualify`
# would pull the current 1.2.x chart and not exercise this change.
# Will run once <NEW_VERSION> is filled in:
make bom-docs
make qualify

Risk Assessment

  • Medium — breaking default for one component (dynamo-platform), but scoped and has a documented opt-out.

Rollout notes: Standing clusters upgrading in-place should either accept the NATS removal + rolling restart, or pass --set global.nats.install=true to defer it. Fresh installs unaffected. No AICR-side feature flag; this follows the upstream chart default.

Checklist

  • Tests pass locally (make test with -race) — pending real chart version
  • Linter passes (make lint)
  • I did not skip/disable tests to make CI green
  • I added/updated tests for new functionality — N/A, config/doc only
  • I updated docs if user-facing behavior changed
  • Changes follow existing patterns in the codebase
  • Commits are cryptographically signed (git commit -S)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Dynamo platform configuration now targets 1.4.1, disables bundled NATS, and removes its JetStream storage and scheduling settings. Networking documentation describes direct TCP request traffic and ZMQ KV events with ports pending cluster confirmation. Conformance checks no longer require a NATS StatefulSet. Smoke tests, documentation, and workload image references reflect the Dynamo 1.4+ architecture.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 89db3

The PR removes bundled NATS defaults and updates related documentation and tests, but it is not merge-ready because the checked-in image inventory is incomplete and two NATS/Dynamo references remain inaccurate. These issues can produce misleading deployment inventories and operational guidance and should be corrected before merging.

MAJOR: The replacement networking contract is explicitly unfinished: the probe and security-group commands retain <PORT>, AWS UAT still allows only the removed NATS port 4222, and current user guidance still describes a NATS-backed event plane. On supported EKS installs with separate GPU and system security groups, AICR can install while TCP requests or ZMQ KV events remain blocked, and current UAT will not detect it.

Minimum correction: establish the exact 1.4.1 listener ports and traffic directions, replace every placeholder with actionable rules and probes, and synchronize UAT and user guidance to that tested TCP/ZMQ contract.

@mchmarny I've pushed the 1.4.1 fix for the registry blocker.

For the networking doc - I don't have access to a live 1.4.1 EKS cluster to confirm the TCP request-plane port. The ZMQ KV-events port 5557 is confirmed from the smoke test manifest, but the request-plane port needs a live ss -tlnp run on the actual cluster. Could you or @yuanchen8911 share that output? Once I have the real port I can immediately replace , update the SG rules, fix the probe commands, and push the final doc.

🔬 Multi-persona review — Dynamo 1.4+ / NATS removal

Method: 3 parallel persona reviewers (Recipe/Domain correctness · CI-DX/Operability · Docs consistency) → an adversarial senior meta-reviewer that re-derived every finding from the resolved code at 053a47a0. Both blockers were reproduced from source.

Duplicate-work note: @mchmarny already has a standing Request changes here. His BLOCKER (registry <NEW_VERSION> placeholder) is now addressed by pinning 1.4.1; his MAJOR (unfinished <PORT> networking contract + UAT still on NATS 4222) is still open and maps to F4/F5 below. The two 🔴 blockers (F1, F2) were not caught by the prior reviews.

The change shape is correct — remove bundled NATS to match Dynamo 1.4+'s TCP/ZMQ defaults, bump the pin, adjust the conformance asserts. But it's incomplete two CI-hard ways and one consistency way: it won't pass CI as-is, and the NATS removal is only ~half-applied across the repo.

Recommendation: request changes (blocking on F1 + F2 at minimum). Legend: 🔴 Blocker · 🟠 Major · 🟡 Minor · 🔵 Nitpick.

🔴 Blockers (fail CI)

🔴 F1 — Two bundler tests still assert the removed NATS storageClass wiring → make test fails. pkg/bundler/bundler_test.go. The PR removed storageClassPaths: [nats.config.jetstream.fileStore.pvc.storageClassName] from the dynamo-platform registry entry and the NATS PVC block from values.yaml, but left the two guard tests: TestApplyNodeSchedulingOverrides_DynamoPlatformStorageClass t.Fatalfs at :2350 (empty GetStorageClassPaths()), and TestWarnMissingStorageClassForPVCs_DynamoPlatformNATS expects wantWarning:true but warnMissingStorageClassForPVCs (bundler.go:1702) loops the now-empty paths → no warning → t.Fatalf at :3052. Fix: delete both dynamo-platform-specific tests (the feature they guard was intentionally removed); keep the kube-prometheus-stack variants.

🔴 F2 — BOM not regenerated → required bom-freshness merge-gate fails (1.2.11.4.1). docs/user/container-images.md:39 still lists dynamo-platform 1.2.1 and the removed NATS images (nats:2.10.21-alpine, natsio/nats-server-config-reloader:0.16.0, kubernetes-operator:1.2.1), while registry.yaml:527 pins 1.4.1. TestCommittedBOMVersionsMatchRegistry hits its mismatch branch; the bom path filter includes recipes/registry.yaml and bom-freshness is in the required gate job's needs → deterministic failure. Fix: make bom-docs and commit the regenerated doc.

🟠 Major

🟠 F3 — UAT tests/uat/lib/phases.sh:105 still defaults SERVE_RUNTIME_IMAGE to vllm-runtime:1.2.1. The comment above it promises lockstep with demos/workloads/inference/vllm-agg.yaml, which this PR bumped to 1.4.1; and a 1.2.x worker defaults its event plane to NATS, now removed — so the UAT serve phase runs a stale image with no event-plane backend. Fix: bump to 1.4.1.

🟠 F4 — UAT security-group configs still open only NATS 4222; the new TCP/ZMQ data plane is unopened (overlaps mchmarny's MAJOR). tests/uat/aws/cluster-config.yaml:75-78 and cluster-config-gb200.yaml:107-110 open 4222 ("Allow NATS…"); gcp/cluster-config.yaml:62-63 comment still says NATS 4222 is permitted. None touched by this PR, and no rule opens the new direct frontend↔worker TCP/ZMQ ports — so EKS inference-dynamo UAT either regresses or silently stops validating the SG topology the doc mandates. Fix: replace the 4222 rule with the confirmed 1.4.1 ports (#1836) and verify a request routes end-to-end.

🟠 F5 — Networking doc ships <PORT> placeholders + "TODO before merging" (overlaps mchmarny's MAJOR) — see inline comment on eks-dynamo-networking.md.

🟠 F6 — docs/user/component-catalog.md:33 still calls the event plane "NATS-backed" — the canonical catalog now contradicts the shipped ZMQ default. Fix: "ZMQ-based KV-cache event plane."

🟠 F7 — docs/user/validation.md:384-391 describes the ZMQ→NATS relay as current behavior and still says "Dynamo 1.2 defaults to TCP". Fix: ZMQ event-plane wording; bump 1.2→1.4.

🟡 Minor

  • F8pkg/evidence/cncf/scripts/collect-evidence.sh:2387 (static here-doc) hardcodes "Supporting Services — NATS running for Dynamo's Kubernetes event plane" → a false claim ships in generated CNCF conformance evidence.
  • F9docs/contributor/validator.md:736-742 repeats the NATS-relay description.
  • F10validators/performance/inference_perf_constraint.go:2761 comment "…onto NATS" drifts from ZMQ reality (comment only).
  • F11validators/performance/testdata/inference/dynamo-deployment.yaml:19-20 and dynamo-deployment-gateway-epp.yaml:18-19 were bumped to 1.4.1 but keep the NATS-relay header comments (same-file inconsistency).
  • F12demos/cuj2-demo.md:213,252,253 narrate the NATS event plane (lines 212/250 are correct — keep those).
  • F13 — leftover <NEW_VERSION> placeholder in a chainsaw assert comment — see inline comment.
  • F14 — the exact-value regression test @mchmarny requested (resolved dynamo recipe == 1.4.1) does not exist; TestOverlayVersionPinsMatchRegistry only enforces the no-pin model. Fix: add a pkg/recipe test asserting ComponentRef.Version == "1.4.1".

🔵 Nitpick

  • F17 — MD031 blank-line-before-fence — see inline comment.

✅ Confirmed non-issues (examined and cleared)

  • Trailing newline dropped in values.yaml.yamllint.yaml sets new-line-at-end-of-file: disable; not a lint failure.
  • values.yaml:15 header already reads (v1.4.1) — an initial persona claim that it still said 1.2.1 was refuted against the file.
  • The NATS opt-in comments in values.yaml:27-36 are correct and intentional (NATS is now opt-in legacy) — keep.
  • Chainsaw multi-doc YAML integrity is fine after the StatefulSet removal (no dangling ---).
  • Runtime storageClass injection safely no-ops when storageClassPaths is empty — only the F1 tests break, not runtime.

Tally: 🔴 2 · 🟠 5 · 🟡 7 · 🔵 1. Verified against source at 053a47a0.

- TCP `4222` - NATS event plane (dynamo-platform)
Allow ingress from the GPU node security group to the system node security

🟠 Major — Networking doc ships placeholders + 'TODO before merging'

Lines 16 (TODO before merging, #1836), 51, 83, 114 carry unresolved placeholders in the probe, the required SG-rule list, and the AWS CLI example. This doc is authoritative — linked from docs/README.md, docs/integrator/index.md, and deep-linked from docs/user/validation.md#required-security-group-rules — so an operator with split GPU/system SGs cannot open the correct rule from it, and hits the exact CrashLoop/timeout symptoms it describes.

Blast radius: Operators cannot complete the SG rule; overlaps mchmarny's standing MAJOR.

Fix: Confirm the real request-plane + ZMQ ports on a live 1.4.1 EKS cluster (per the doc's own ss -tlnp step), fill all three s and remove the TODO — or hold the rewrite until #1836 resolves ports.

🔵 Nitpick — MD031 — fenced block not preceded by a blank line

Inside the blockquote, line 24 is immediately followed by the opening ```shell fence at line 25 with no blank > line; markdownlint MD031 (blanks-around-fences) applies within blockquotes. Also flagged by CodeRabbit.

Blast radius: markdownlint / doc build; cosmetic.

Fix: Insert a blank blockquote line (>) between line 24 and the opening fence.

🟡 Minor — Leftover <NEW_VERSION> placeholder in the chainsaw assert comment

Line 16 # Chart: dynamo-platform <NEW_VERSION> — the placeholder-fill that replaced <NEW_VERSION> in registry.yaml missed this comment (the sibling kind assert has no version line, so this is also inconsistent).

Blast radius: Cosmetic; a future placeholder grep trips on it. No runtime/CI break.

Fix: Replace with 1.4.1, or drop the version line to match the kind assert.

Request changes: 1 MAJOR against 053a47a.

MAJOR: Resolve the unfinished networking contract before merge

The existing blocking thread remains unresolved at this head. The networking guide still contains a merge TODO and <PORT> placeholders in its probe, required security-group rules, and AWS command, while UAT still permits the removed NATS port. Operators with split system and GPU security groups cannot apply or validate the required TCP and ZMQ access.

Minimum correction: establish the exact 1.4.1 listener ports and directions, replace every placeholder with actionable rules and probes, and synchronize UAT and user guidance to that tested contract.

…AT image, update NATS to ZMQ wording across docs and code, regenerate BOM

379-379: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Remove the stale Dynamo 1.2 reference.

Line 379 still says inference-routing-mode selects the Dynamo 1.2 Kubernetes routing path, while Lines 384-390 describe the Dynamo 1.4+ transport. Update the reference to 1.4+, or identify 1.2 as historical API terminology.

Do not treat failed Helm renders as zero-image inventories. Both entries omit required images because helm template was killed. Regenerate the BOM after fixing the render failures, or make the generator fail when rendering fails.

These helm template: signal: killed failures for aws-ebs-csi-driver and prometheus-adapter are pre-existing - they appear in the current main branch BOM as well and are not introduced by this PR. The make bom-docs output is deterministic given the current environment; fixing the render failures is out of scope for this change.

@mohityadav8, verification does not support the pre-existing classification.

origin/main contains complete image inventories for both components:

  • aws-ebs-csi-driver: 6 images.
  • prometheus-adapter: 1 image.

This PR replaces those inventories with helm template failed: signal: killed and zero-image entries. The failures therefore change the generated BOM in this PR. Please restore complete inventories or prevent BOM generation from accepting failed Helm renders.

@mchmarny @njhensley F1–F13 are all addressed in the latest commit. The remaining blocker is F4/F5: the placeholder in eks-dynamo-networking.md and the NATS 4222 SG rules in the UAT cluster configs . these require a live 1.4.1 EKS cluster to confirm the actual TCP request-plane port via ss -tlnp . I don't have access to one.
