Bluefield DPL pull failing due to timeout

[Nishanth Shyamkumar]

I am following the example artifact ‘BlueField_DPU_P4_Example.tar.gz’ , and there is a step where it has to pull the DPL container image onto the host.

sudo docker pull nvcr.io/nvidia/doca/dpl_dev:1.1.10-doca3.0.0-host

However, this fails with the following error:  “Error response from daemon: Get “https://nvcr.io/v2/“: net/http: TLS handshake timeout”

I tried accessing it from my local network, and it works. So it is not a problem with the docker repo itself. Is there a firewall rule in FABRIC  preventing access to nvcr.io ?

Hi Nishanth,

Could you please share which Site is your slice running at?

Hi Komal,

It is running on DALL.

Hi Komal,

Were you able to figure out if this is a FABRIC problem? I tried with another site SEAT, and it failed at the same operation.

Hi Nishanth,

I tried on UTAH, MICH, MASS and docker pull seems to work.

Could you please try nslookup nvcr.io and then try the docker pull command?

I will also check with Mert/Hussam to see if we have any known issues on SEAT and DALL.

Best,

Komal

I tried running docker pull manually on DALL and SEAT, and it worked fine on both. The artifact also ran successfully on SEAT with following changes. The issue appears to be related to the Docker installation via docker.io.

I have also passed this to the artifact author so they can make the required updates.

I made the following changes to get the artifact working:

• Changed the image to docker_ubuntu_24.
• Updated Step 34 to remove docker.io from the installation commands.

stdout, stderr = node1.execute('sudo apt-get update', quiet=True)
stdout, stderr = node1.execute('sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python3-pip net-tools', quiet=True)
stdout, stderr = node2.execute('sudo apt-get update', quiet=True)
stdout, stderr = node2.execute('sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python3-pip net-tools', quiet=True)
stdout, stderr = node1.execute('sudo pip3 install meson ninja', quiet=True)
stdout, stderr = node2.execute('sudo apt install -y python3-scapy', quiet=True)

Best,
Komal

Thanks Komal, with the changes you mentioned it successfully executed the nvcr.io pull step.
