A Lightweight Cluster/Cloud VM Job Management Tool 🚀

Overview

Lightweight Cluster/Cloud VM Job Management 🚀

Pyversions PyPI version Code style: black

Are you looking for a tool to manage your training runs locally, on Slurm/Open Grid Engine clusters, SSH servers or Google Cloud Platform VMs? mle-scheduler provides a lightweight API to launch and monitor job queues. It smoothly orchestrates simultaneous runs for different configurations and/or random seeds. It is meant to reduce boilerplate and to make job resource specification intuitive. It comes with two core pillars:

  • MLEJob: Launches and monitors a single job on a resource (Slurm, Open Grid Engine, GCP, SSH, etc.).
  • MLEQueue: Launches and monitors a queue of jobs with different training configurations and/or seeds.

For a quickstart check out the notebook blog or the example scripts 📖

Installation

pip install mle-scheduler

Development & Milestones for Next Release

You can run the test suite via python -m pytest -vv tests/. If you find a bug or are missing your favourite feature, feel free to contact me @RobertTLange or create an issue 🤗 . In future releases I plan on implementing the following:

  • Clean up TPU GCP VM & JAX dependencies case
  • Add local launching of cluster jobs via SSH to headnode
  • Add Docker/Singularity container setup support
  • Add Azure support
  • Add AWS support
Comments
  • use sys.executable instead of 'python'

    use sys.executable instead of 'python'

    In some systems (like mine, when I run locally on conda), the Python executable is not "python". I used here a global variable - not sure if that's the best way, but it allows for cases where we don't want the executable to be the same as sys.executable (e.g. if we want to execute the job on a different python interpreter than the one we are using).

  • Handle case when experiment_dir is not provided

    Handle case when experiment_dir is not provided

    At the moment if "experiment_dir" is None, then cmd_line_args is not initialized, and hence future lines like cmd_line_args += " -config " + self.config_filename will fail.

    The proposed change just initializes cmd_line_args to the empty string, and then adds all options to it later.

  • [Feature] Make `meta_log` accessible from queue

    [Feature] Make `meta_log` accessible from queue

    Instead of having to ...

    # Merge logs of random seeds & configs -> load & get final scores
    queue.merge_configs(merge_seeds=True)
    meta_log = load_meta_log("logs_search/meta_log.hdf5")
    test_scores = [meta_log[r].stats.test_loss.mean[-1] for r in queue.mle_run_ids]
    

    it would be great to do the load_meta_log already within the MLEQueue if merge_configs is called.

  • Handling Errors thrown in GCP VMs

    Handling Errors thrown in GCP VMs

    Complete newbie to using VMs, so I'm guessing this will be a rookie questions.

    If an error is encountered when executing a job on a GCP VM, what are the best practices for handling them? I'm not even sure how to know if there was an error, which obviously complicates the debugging process.
