yes. the lines above were from the task log. let me add more info from the task log:
task yyy pulled from zzz by worker www # first line
Running Task xxx inside default docker: <my docker name> arguments: [] # second line on the task log
Executing: ['docker', 'run', '-t', '--gpus', '"device=1"', '--shm-size', '8G', ...] # begining of the third line
agent.extra_docker_arguments.0 = --shm-size # later on
agent.extra_docker_arguments.1 = 8G # later on

I mean in the execution section of the task - under container section

Happy to help 🙂

Also, what happens if you apss it in agent.default_docker.arguments ?

as for agent.default_docker.arguments:
add to the conf?

default_docker: {
        arguments: ["--shm-size=8G",]
    }

default_docker: {
    arguments: ["--shm-size", 8G]
}

the above seems to do the trick.
second line on the web console output:
Running Task xxx inside default docker: <my docker name> arguments: ['--shm-size', '8G']
later on:
agent.default_docker.arguments.0 = --shm-size
agent.default_docker.arguments.1 = 8G
later on:
docker_cmd = <my docker name> --shm-size 8G

thank you for your help @<1523701070390366208:profile|CostlyOstrich36> :)

Hi @<1541592227107573760:profile|EnchantingHippopotamus83> , do you see any of the arguments on the task itself?
