Hi Nishanth,

I will check other sites too, it would be helpful if you can share sites you tried.
Could you please delete your slice and try again?

It might be related to which bitfile has been used to Flash the FPGA. For instance, INDI is flashed with a bit file compatible with NEU workflow.

Thanks,
Komal

Hi Yuanjun,

Details about the VM profiles are available here. For specific flavor information, please refer to the GitHub link. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks,

Hi Sourya,

I can confirm both node: MICH_3D and network interconnect4 have been deleted and are in Closed State.
In order to move the slice from ModifyError to StableError state, please execute the following block of code:


slice = fablib.get_slice(name=”Tailscale_Mesh_VPN”)
slice.modify_accept()


This should allow you to do any additional modifications.

Thanks,
Komal

Hi Ilya,

I’ve confirmed that the FPGA is currently allocated to a slice belonging to another user. While the FPGA may have been flashed with your bitfile, our current allocation system does not reserve FPGAs for projects based on bitfiles flash requests. If the FPGAs are not linked to a specific slice, they remain available for other users to request and utilize.

We are actively working on enhancing our allocation system and quota management, and I will take your experience as valuable feedback for these improvements. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Thanks,
Komal

KANS and LOSA both have the FPGA allocated.
WASH seems to have the FPGA available but based on the Core/Ram/Disk requested, the slice might have been rejected.
Snapshot for WASH:

Worked with Hemil over a zoom meeting and was able to resolve the issue by renaming the bastion key in fabric_rc and re-executing the configure_and_validate.ipynb

Thanks,
Komal

Hi Hemil,

Could you please run the jupyter-examples-*/configure_and_validate/configure_and_validate.ipynb notebook?
This shall resolve any SSH key issues by renewing the expired bastion keys if any.

Try your setup.sh script after that and let us know if you still see this error.
In addition, could you please try to SSH to the VMs using the command shown in SSH Command coloumn.

Regarding auto configuring the IP addresses, please specify the subnet when creating a network and set mode to auto for the interfaces at slice creation. Please refer to one of the following examples for more details.

Please let us know if you still run into errors or questions.

Thanks,

Hi Ilya,

Could you please try your slice again? There were leaked slivers. I have cleared them, slice provisioning should work now.

Thanks,
Komal

Hi Ali,

We only provide 1G storage to users on Jupyter Containers in the /home/fabric/work directory. Could you please clarify or add screenshot of the df -h from the terminal in your container and also share how you are trying to upload the files?

I tried and uploaded 800 MB file to my container using the Jupyter Hub upload interface without issues.

Thanks,
Komal

Slice has been deleted.

Hello,

Your slice is set to close by November 20th and is currently in the StableOK state. If needed, you can request to renew your project to continue using this slice. Alternatively, I can delete the slice if that is your intention.

Hi Luca,

Not much luck with it! I can reproduce what you are observing on CLEM but haven’t found a resolution yet. However, I did notice that when I start pktgen and all the containers are up and running. I keep noticing following error in the container sn-stack-ubuntu-smartnic-cfg-1

Probe reports few drops as soon as I start pktgen but after that it just keeps reporting all 0s.

Hey Luca,

I was looking at your slice on SRI and noticed two containers sn-stack-ubuntu-smartnic-cfg-1 and sn-stack-ubuntu-smartnic-p4-1 are restarting. I suspect that could be the reason for traffic issue.

Your DALL slice is expired so I could not check there.

The logs in both of them suggest FPGA is not ready.
