With the current flavor definition, I would recommend requesting VMs with the configuration:

cores='62', ram='384', disk='2000'

Anything bigger than this maps to fabric.c64.m384.d4000 and only one of the workers i.e. cern-w1 can accomodate 4TB disks and rest of the worker can at max accomodate 2TB disk. I will discuss this internally to work on providing a better flavor to accomodate your slice.

Thanks,

Komal

P.S: I was able to successfully create a slice with the above configuration.

I looked at the instance types, please try setting the core='62', ram='384', disk='100'

FYI: https://github.com/fabric-testbed/InformationModel/blob/master/fim/slivers/data/instance_sizes.json this might be useful for VM sizing.

Thanks,

I looked at your slices and found that you have 2 Dead Slices and 6 Closing Slices. All the slices are requesting VMs on a single site CERN. All the Slice requests are requesting either 120 or 60 cores. Regardless of the disk size, for core/ram requested these are mapped to the following flavors. Considering that there are other slices also on CERN site, your slice cannot be accommodated by single CERN site. Please consider either spanning your slice across multiple sites or reducing the size of the VM not only w.r.t disk but also cores/ram.

We currently only have a limited number of flavors and your core/ram request is being mapped to a huge disk.

core: 120 , ram: 480 G, ==>  fabric.c64.m384.d4000

core: 60 , ram: 360 G,  ==> fabric.c60.m384.d2000

NOTE: No manual cleanup is needed the software is behaving as designed.

Thanks,

Hi Fengping,

Your second slice failed with the error: Insufficient resources as depicted below. Please note that slice deletion is not synchronous, it may take some time for all the resources associated with a slice to be deleted. Please consider adding slight delay between subsequent slice creation attempts if both the slices are requesting resources from the same site which might not have been released yet by the first slice.

Resource Type: VM Notices: Reservation 113cd41c-26df-461e-8dc9-f93ed92fcebf (Slice ServiceXSlice(66a78e70-ecf2-41e7-be12-740561904991) Graph Id:cc871ebc-e290-4b44-ab36-046d3cd2da00 Owner:fengping@uchicago.edu) is in state (Closed,None_) (Last ticket update: Insufficient resources : ['disk'])

 

For the second slice, you can view the failure reasons from the portal, by select the check box ‘Include Dead/Closed Slices`.

Please try creating the slice again and let us know if you still see errors.

 

Thanks,

Komal

Sorry, for not indicating this before, you can restart the container from File -> Hub Control Panel -> Stop My Server, then logout and login.

[Komal Thareja]

Could you please remove the entries for fabrictestbed-extensions from ~/work/fabric_config/requirements.txt and restart your container? Please try your notebooks after the restart.

Thanks,

Komal

Hello Acheme,

Could you please share the output of the following commands? Also, which container are you using?

pip list | grep fabric

cat ~/work/fabric_config/requirements.txt

Thanks,

Hello Thushari,

We are looking into this and have found that in a race condition when list_resources times out, you may observe the output as shared by you. We are debugging this and would work on a fix. In the meanwhile, could you please explicitly pass a site name when adding a node to your slice and try it?

Also, please try both 1.4.6 and 1.5.1 containers and let us know if it works for any of the options.

Thanks,

Komal

It looks like an older version of fablib is running in your container. Could you please ensure that there are no entries for fabrictestbed-extensions in fabric_config/requirements.txt ? Please restart your JH container after that and try the notebook again.

Versions should something like below for 1.4.6 and 1.5.1 container options.

For 1.4.6 container:

pip list | grep fabric
fabric 3.1.0
fabric-credmgr-client 1.3.2
fabric-fim 1.4.14
fabric-fss-utils 1.4.0
fabric-orchestrator-client 1.4.7
fabrictestbed 1.4.7
fabrictestbed-extensions 1.4.6


For 1.5.1 container:


$ pip list | grep fabric
fabric 3.1.0
fabric-credmgr-client 1.5.0
fabric_fim 1.5.2
fabric_fss_utils 1.5.0
fabric-orchestrator-client 1.5.1
fabrictestbed 1.5.1
fabrictestbed-extensions 1.5.1


 

Thanks,

Hello Nagmat,

Could you please share the output of the following command from a terminal window in JH container?

pip list | grep fabric

Hello,

Could you please ensure that configure_environment.ipynb notebook has been executed and your environment is setup? Also, please remove any entries for fabrictestbed-extensions you may have in fabric_config/requirements.txt and restart your container and attempt creating the slice again?

Thanks,

Komal

Credential Manager has been updated and the maintenance is complete!

[Komal Thareja]

SSL certs updated and maintenance is complete.

[Komal Thareja]

Thank you for reporting this! It’s a bug, for now I have patched the JH with the fix. I will push it to the github repo as well.

Thanks,
