RPM Installation

Prerequisites

Before installing Fleet Intelligence Agent, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

  • Configure an NVIDIA package repository for automatic dependency installation. The following dependencies are required and satisfied by the CUDA (network or local) repository.
    • datacenter-gpu-manager-4-core (DCGM HostEngine)
    • datacenter-gpu-manager-4-proprietary (DCGM proprietary libraries)
    • nvattest (NVIDIA Attestation SDK CLI, NVAT)
    • corelib (NVAT GPU evidence source dependency)
  • DCGM HostEngine 4.2.3 or newer
  • NVIDIA Datacenter Driver major version 510 or newer is installed
  • Install/upgrade commands are run as root or with sudo
  • dnf-plugins-core is installed (required for dnf config-manager)
  • Attestation for the fleetint use case only supports Blackwell and newer GPUs, and applies to non-CC mode systems
    • Fleetint is supported without attestation for Hopper GPUs.
  • For NVSwitch systems (driver branch must match installed datacenter driver):
    • Hopper (pre-4th gen NVSwitch): install nvidia-driver:<driver-branch>/fm
    • Blackwell (4th gen NVSwitch): install nvidia-driver-<driver-branch>-open and nvlink-<driver-branch>

Fleet Intelligence Agent package dependencies are available through NVIDIA's CUDA repository. Before installing Fleet Intelligence Agent, add the appropriate NVIDIA CUDA repository for your system:

Install dnf-plugins-core first if dnf config-manager is not available:

sudo dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core

RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux Systems

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 8 (x86_64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel8/x86_64/cuda-rhel8.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 9 (x86_64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel9/x86_64/cuda-rhel9.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 10 (x86_64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel10/x86_64/cuda-rhel10.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 8 (ARM64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel8/sbsa/cuda-rhel8.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 9 (ARM64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel9/sbsa/cuda-rhel9.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux 10 (ARM64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel10/sbsa/cuda-rhel10.repo
sudo dnf clean all

Amazon Linux 2023

# Amazon Linux 2023 (x86_64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/amzn2023/x86_64/cuda-amzn2023.repo
sudo dnf clean all

# Amazon Linux 2023 (ARM64)
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/amzn2023/sbsa/cuda-amzn2023.repo
sudo dnf clean all

After adding the CUDA repository, package dependencies (datacenter-gpu-manager-4-core, datacenter-gpu-manager-4-proprietary, nvattest, and corelib) are resolved automatically by dnf during Fleet Intelligence Agent installation.

Install package

Download the package from the latest stable release, then install it:

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux/Amazon Linux (x86_64)
sudo dnf install ./fleetint-VERSION-1.x86_64.rpm

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux/Amazon Linux (ARM64)
sudo dnf install ./fleetint-VERSION-1.aarch64.rpm

Verify:

sudo fleetint --version
systemctl status fleetintd

Optional: Verify package authenticity

To verify a release before installation, download the package, fleet-intelligence.pub.asc, checksums.txt, checksums.txt.asc, and verify-linux-package-signature.sh from the same release.

Confirm that the public key fingerprint is:

FE0C 8B74 CA66 357C 13BE 197D CCE3 C963 0871 99B3

Then verify the checksum manifest, package digest, and embedded package signature:

gpg --show-keys --fingerprint fleet-intelligence.pub.asc
gpg --import fleet-intelligence.pub.asc
gpg --verify checksums.txt.asc checksums.txt
sha256sum -c --ignore-missing checksums.txt
chmod 755 verify-linux-package-signature.sh
./verify-linux-package-signature.sh \
  fleetint-VERSION-1.x86_64.rpm \
  fleet-intelligence.pub.asc

Update

Install the newer package version:

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux/Amazon Linux (x86_64)
sudo dnf install ./fleetint-VERSION-1.x86_64.rpm

# RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux/Amazon Linux (ARM64)
sudo dnf install ./fleetint-VERSION-1.aarch64.rpm

The service will automatically restart with the new version.

Uninstall

sudo dnf remove fleetint
