Problems creating new slices

[Nagmat Nazarov]

Dear Community,

I am trying to create new slices with (random I got MAX, SALT, DALL) but the slice disappears as soon as it gets created.

when trying to see the condition :

`

try:
slice = fablib.get_slice(name=slice_name)
print(f”{slice}”)
except Exception as e:
print(f”Exception: {e}”)

<code></code>`

Getting error, Exception: list index out of range

What may be the issue?

Kind regards,

Nagmat

Hi Nagmat,

Could you please share slice id for the slice(s) if possible? Also, you could check in Portal under Experiment->Slices, please select “Include Dead/Closing” slices. Any errors that occurred in those slices should be displayed when you view the slice on the portal.

Thanks,
Komal

The Slice id was : d54fd501-ca14-49ce-b217-50c593bd0927

I couldn’t find any errors displayed on the portal.

Hi Nagmat,

I don’t see any failures for this slice either. It seems like this slice was deleted on 2023-05-16 17:31:42 UTC.

However, I do see that, another slice created by you yesterday failed with “Insufficient resources error” which would explain the notebook behavior.

Probably it failed because of insufficient resources.
