43 × Eureka!For the images themselves, you can get heir urls
how can I do it?
I hope you can do this without containers.
so far everything works, the only problem I can think of is a race condition, but I will probably ignore it, which happens in the following scenario:
a) a worker finishes its current run, turns into an idle state,
b) my script scrapes the status of the worker, which is idle,
c) a new task is enqueued and picked by the worker,
d) the worker is killed after it managed to pull a task from the queue, so the task will be cancelled as well.
I implemented the first version and it seems to work.
SuccessfulKoala55 20 minutes at least
thanks, next time I will provide you will all the logs
yes, happy to help! In fact I am also interested in the k8s glue, since in one of our use cases we are using jobs and not pods (to allow for spot instances in the cloud), but I need to dig digger into the architecture to understand what we need exactly from k8s glue.
AgitatedDove14 if I use report_image
can I get a URL to it somehow?
Yes, replace image viewer with a custom widget, but perhaps we can implement this externally (I am not an expert on UI to be honest)
apiserver logs were clean, only 200s there
and the experiment did not produce any logs, shall I enable some debug flag?
AgitatedDove14 going back to the slurm subject, I have local trains installed on the cluster with slurm so I am ready to test. At the same time I was thinking whether a simple solution would do the job:
a) [scale up agents] monitor the trains queue, if there is something that was not started for some amount of time, and the number of agents is not yet at the maximum, then add an agent,
b) [scale down agents] if all the tasks are running and there are idle agents, kill an idle agent.
Or do yo...
have some kind of an add-on not as a widget but in an external system (this is not the preffered way of course)
yes, but the local output was completely empty
sure, we can deal with the drivers
AgitatedDove14 I meant the following scenario:
trains-agents will be running as slurm jobs (possibly for a very long time), there is a program running on an access-node of the cluster (where no computation happens, but from where one can submit jobs to slurm), this program check is there are not enough or too many agents running and adjusts them by cancelling them or spinning new ones.
AgitatedDove14 thanks, that will be helpful!
that was quick, thanks!
AgitatedDove14 I do not want to push you in any way, but if you could give me an estimate of the slurm glue code, that would be helpful. I should have a local installation of the trains server to experiment with next week.
the images do not show up in debug_samples. How can I check what is wrong?
that's ok, I think that the race condition will be a non-issue. Thanks for checking!
some piece of html+js code that you can add that governs how to visualize debug_samples from experiments that are already finished, think of adding an overlay of two types of images post factum
AgitatedDove14 Is there a way to say to a worker that it should not take new tasks? If there is such a feature then one could avoid the race condition.
Not sure yet, I will get back to you on this later, in 1-2 weeks, thanks.
