DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017 deployed on NVIDIA DGX Spark systems

A technical guide details the deployment of the DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017 large language model across two NVIDIA DGX Spark systems. The setup involved configuring the model with a 2.9-bpw EXL3 checkpoint and a TensorFold inference recipe, utilizing two RoCE rail interfaces for communication. The deployment was integrated with Open WebUI for API access within a research laboratory network, requiring careful hardware and network preparation, troubleshooting, and validation. AI

IMPACT Provides a technical blueprint for deploying large language models on specialized hardware, potentially aiding researchers and developers in similar infrastructure setups.
