Troubleshooting
My session is stuck in Pending
Three usual causes:
- No node has the requested GPU. Check the compute pool's max size. If the pool is at the autoscaler ceiling, the request will queue. The session's Activity tab will say
FailedSchedulingif so. - Image pull is slow. First-time pulls of large CUDA images can take 5+ minutes. Subsequent starts on the same node are instant.
- PVC binding pending. If you mounted a brand-new persistent volume, it has to be provisioned. Wait, or check storage status.
My endpoint is Running but my requests time out
Confirm three things:
- You're hitting the right URL (the detail page header is canonical).
- Your Vantage API key is in
Authorization: Bearer …, not as a query param. - The model finished loading. The endpoint reports Running as soon as one replica is healthy, but large models take a few minutes after that to load weights into GPU memory. The Logs tab will show
model readywhen the inference engine is actually serving.
Training job logs are empty
By default the Logs tab streams the trainer master pod. If your master finished early but workers are still going, the master log will be quiet. Use the container/rank dropdown to switch.
Pipeline and sweep limitations
Both tabs are in Preview. Today:
- Pipeline authoring is API-first. The UI shows experiments, pipelines, runs, recurring runs, artifacts, and executions.
- Sweep creation is available from the UI when algorithms, runtimes, and compute pools are configured. The list and detail views show trials and sweep progress.
- Cost tiles on these tabs may be missing or stale; we're wiring billing into them.
Cost tiles read $0 or look wrong
Workbench computes spend from compute pool rates × elapsed runtime. If your admin hasn't configured a rate for a pool, that pool's resources will read $0. This is a configuration issue, not a measurement bug, open an admin ticket.
