The template below is mostly useful for bug reports and support questions. Feel free to remove anything which doesn't apply to you and add more information where it makes sense.

Important Note: NVIDIA AI Enterprise customers can get support from NVIDIA Enterprise support. Please open a case here.

1. Quick Debug Information

• OS/Version(e.g. RHEL8.6, Ubuntu22.04): Ubuntu22.04
• Kernel Version:
• Container Runtime Type/Version(e.g. Containerd, CRI-O, Docker): Containerd
• K8s Flavor/Version(e.g. K8s, OCP, Rancher, GKE, EKS): v1.25.6
• GPU Operator Version: latest

2. Issue or feature description

I want to monitor GPUs in kubevirt passthrough mode, but nodes set to vm-passthrough don't have dcgm, dcgm-export installed. is there any way to implement monitoring GPUs in kubevirt passthrough mode?

3. Steps to reproduce the issue

Refer to this document to build the kubevirt vm-passthrough environment.
https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/gpu-operator/latest/gpu-operator-kubevirt.html

4. Information to attach (optional if deemed irrelevant)

• kubernetes pods status: kubectl get pods -n OPERATOR_NAMESPACE
• kubernetes daemonset status: kubectl get ds -n OPERATOR_NAMESPACE
• If a pod/ds is in an error state or pending state kubectl describe pod -n OPERATOR_NAMESPACE POD_NAME
• If a pod/ds is in an error state or pending state kubectl logs -n OPERATOR_NAMESPACE POD_NAME --all-containers
• Output from running nvidia-smi from the driver container: kubectl exec DRIVER_POD_NAME -n OPERATOR_NAMESPACE -c nvidia-driver-ctr -- nvidia-smi
• containerd logs journalctl -u containerd > containerd.log

Collecting full debug bundle (optional):

curl -o must-gather.sh -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NVIDIA/gpu-operator/master/hack/must-gather.sh 
chmod +x must-gather.sh
./must-gather.sh

NOTE: please refer to the must-gather script for debug data collected.

@rokkiter we do not have a solution available today for gathering GPU metrics on nodes configured for GPU passthrough.

@cdesiniotis, Is there a plan to add this support anytime soon?
