⚡Sessions

Sessions

For prototyping/debugging/analyzing, sometimes you need a LIVE machine. We call these Sessions.

Session features:

  • Change Machine Instance Type
  • Use Spot Instance
  • Mount multiple GPUs
  • Auto-mount datastores
  • Pre-installed JupyterLab
  • SSH access
  • Visual Studio Code access
  • Pause the session to save work and pause expenses
  • Resume where you left off

Product Tour

Start a Session

The equivalent via the CLI command:

# session with 2 M60 GPUs
grid session create --instance_type 2_m60_8gb

Listing sessions in the CLI:

grid session

Delete a Session

The equivalent CLI command:

grid session delete GRID_SESSION_NAME

Pausing/Resuming a Session

As we will not be working 24/7 on our sessions it is important to pause them to not consume our credits. Resuming will bring back your session with all packages you have installed previously.

Pausing

grid session pause GRID_SESSION_NAME

Resuming

grid session resume GRID_SESSION_NAME

Change Session Instance Type

# Note: at the moment it is required that you first pause the session
grid session pause GRID_SESSION_NAME

grid session change-instance-type GRID_SESSION_NAME g4dn.xlarge
