Lacking BEP resources

The following symptoms occurring while running a model indicate that the problem might be not the model but the resources for running it:

  • The results are not displayed for a long time.

  • You receive a timeout exception.

Cause

The issue can be due to various reasons:

  • Unmounted and lost BEP Agents. For details, refer to Issues related to NFS shared resources.

  • If you have limited resource capacity, your cluster might not even be considered to run machine learning models. Usually, one model Worker instance requires 4+ GB of memory and 1 CPU.

Solution

First of all, take a look at your BEP cluster and check the following:

  • Overall resources you have

  • Resources allocated to different tasks and processes

In case you don't see some part of your resources, it's a symptom of unmounted and lost BEP Agents.

If the resources are not lost but almost all allocated, and there are no free resources to start a new model task, consider adding a new BEP Agent.
