Hi @enzo
I’m struggle to find out why all my submissions are failing since this morning. crunch test worked fine. Here are 3 submissions that returned an error at the beginning (after 42 seconds):
Run #78581
Run #78594
Run #78578
Yesterday everthing was fine.
The error is: Task state is updated from RUNNING to FAILED on zones/europe-west1-b/instances/6766334117289933714 with exit code 1. with code 1
Thanks.

I think it’s a problem with the underlying infrastructure that fails.

Hi @mpware and @salty-francisco,
We apologize for the downtime for the runs using GCP as a compute provider.
We identified the issue and deployed a fix.
Don’t hesitate to reach us if you are still experiencing issues.

Hello, staff!
Because of these constant failures(just related to AWS), I have exausted all my compute time. It’s stack. I could not even pause or turn off such submissions. Same code for next time - works perfect.
How could we eliminate such problems?
What could I do with exausted limits(15 hours) because of that?

Hello Efim,
To avoid people being stuck without any quota by accidentally consuming it all, failed runs do not count in the weekly quota.
Your run, #78934, took over 12 hours by itself. After that, you ran multiple runs at ~30 minutes each.
Technically, you used your quota as expected.
I just checked the provider’s website (it’s GCP this year, not AWS) and the runtime is really 12 hours.
Are you saying that the 12 hours ran in only 30 minutes by submitting the exact same code?

Thank you for quick answer!
Yes, you are right. I missed this super long run. I was thinking that Terminated runs are considered in overall.
I did some investigation for this super long run:
As I see, it was because of super long determinism check:

Could we consider super long determinism check(required by the platform) as failed submission?
Because, training/inference/whole setup was pretty fast. Also, I always do my local runs before submission. So, it’s just because stacked determinism.

Hi stormy-efim,
I just invalidated it as an exceptional occasion. You are now reporting only two hours of consumed quota.
The determinism check is only run on 30% of the data and should not normally take longer than your usual inference speed. It is a mandatory requirement to ensure your code is deterministic, the output is eventually discarded.
