Also, what version are you on?

of what?

Can you try with blank worker_id/work_name in your clearml.conf (basically how it was before)?

You can force kill the agent using kill -9 <process_id> but clearml-agent daemon stop should work.

Also, can you verify that one of the daemons is the clearml-services daemon? This one should be running from inside a docker on your server machine (I'm guessing you're self hosting - correct?).

not sure I understand
running
clearml-agent listI get
`
workers:

• company:
  id: d1bd92...1e52b
  name: clearml
  id: clearml-server-...wdh:0
  ip: x.x.x.x
  ... `

If you killed all processes directly, there can't be any workers on that machine. It means that these two workers are running somewhere else...

Correct

updated the clearml.conf with empty worker_id/name ran

clearml-agent daemon --stop

top | grep clearmKilled the pidsran

clearml-agent list

still both of the workers are listed

Strange
I ran
clearml-agent daemon --stopand after 10 min I ran
clearml-agent listand I still see a worker

OutrageousSheep60 , what version of ClearML-Agent are you using?

Can I assume you're running the agent (in daemon mode) on the same machine that you're running the clearml-agent daemon --stop command?

by the way, if you stop a daemon in an orderly way, it should remove itself, I think...

Do you have any other workers running?

Can you try upgrading to the latest agent version? pip install -U clearml-agent

Hi OutrageousSheep60 , do you mean to make it disappear from the UI?

Did you wait 10-15~ mins for it to time out?

Please advise on how to remove a worker

When you stop a daemon service, it will stop reporting to the server. There's a timeout of 10min, after which a daemon will not be displayed in the server

Also, can you verify that you still have the clearml-agent process running? top / htop

My bad, I meant to ask what OS it's on 🙂

we reinstalled the clearml-agent$clearml-agent --version CLEARML-AGENT version 1.2.3running top | grep clearmlwe can see the agent running
running clearml-agent listwe can see 2 workers
before running clearml-agent daemon --stopWe updated the clearml.conf and updated the worker_id and worker_name with the relevant name/id that we can see from clearml-agent list
and we get
Could not find a running clearml-agent instance with worker_name=<clearml_worker_name> worker_id=<clearml_worker_id:0>As we understand the --stop without any id's should stop all the workers.

waited 10 minrunning top | grep clearml we can see the clearml-agent running
running clearml-agent list we can see the 2 workers

yes - and removed from
clearml-agent list

Also, what version are you on?

CLEARML-AGENT version 1.2.2

Well it seems that we have similar https://github.com/allegroai/clearml-agent/issues/86
currently we are just creating a new worker and on a separate queue
