The NVSwitch-detection fix (983f41a) was necessary but not sufficient on
HGX B200 (Kaytus KR9288-X3): ExecCondition now correctly runs fabricmanager,
but nvidia-fabricmanager-start.sh then aborts with "Kernel module ib_umad
has not been loaded" on this NVL5+ board, leaving the fabric stuck in
"In Progress" and cascading into failed dcgmi diag/NVBandwidth/NCCL/Validate
GPU SAT tasks (confirmed via support bundle 20260729-165331).
Neither nvidia-fabricmanager nor DCGM declare the NVLink5 support packages
as apt dependencies (checked against the cuda-repo Packages index directly):
ib_umad must be modprobed before FM starts, nvlsm (InfiniBand Subnet Manager)
is launched internally by FM's own start script once present, and DCGM
dlopens libnvidia-nscq at runtime for NVSwitch health monitoring.

bee-nvidia.service loads NVIDIA kernel modules; without After=bee-nvidia.service
fabricmanager starts before /dev/nvidiactl is ready, fails, and relies on
systemd restart to recover (~38s delay on affected systems).

Network: green if at least one interface has IPv4 (drop PARTIAL state).
Bee Services: treat inactive as OK — oneshot services (bee-sshsetup,
bee-preflight, bee-network, bee-audit, etc.) complete successfully and
exit to inactive; only failed is a real problem.
nvidia-fabricmanager: add ExecCondition=bee-check-nvswitch drop-in so
the service is silently skipped (inactive, not failed) on systems
without NVSwitch hardware (e.g. H200 NVL with direct NVLink, no
NVSwitch chips). bee-check-nvswitch detects NVSwitch via lspci
(vendor 10de, class 0680).
bee-nvidia.service: add ConditionPathExists=/usr/local/bin/bee-nvidia-load
so the unit is a no-op if somehow present in a non-nvidia build.
bee-boot-status: read /etc/bee-gpu-vendor and exclude bee-nvidia from
CRITICAL/ALL on non-nvidia builds, preventing boot hang if the unit
is unexpectedly present.
