Interactive Jobs

Out-of-the-box Jupyter Lab, creation and management of interactive jobs, and related content

The Interactive Jobs feature provides users with out-of-the-box Jupyter Lab and Web IDE. This document aims to explain the creation and management of interactive jobs and related content.

Creating Interactive Jobs

You can click the "New Jupyter Lab" button on the "Platform Overview" page or the "My Jobs" -> "Interactive Jobs" page to enter the new Jupyter Lab page.

On the "New Jupyter Lab" page, you can set various configurations for interactive jobs:

Job name
Job resources (including CPU cores, memory usage, whether to use GPU, and selecting the GPU model to use)
Container image
Set data mounting directory
Add environment variables
Other options
- Receive status notifications
- Enable node selection feature

Various settings for interactive jobs can be done by importing a configuration file. Jobs that have already been set up can also be exported as a configuration file, as shown in the following example:

{
  "version": "20240528",
  "type": "jupyter",
  "data": {
    "taskname": "DL-bench-test",
    "cpu": 2,
    "gpu": {
      "count": 1,
      "model": "nvidia.com/a100"
    },
    "memory": 4,
    "image": "harbor.act.buaa.edu.cn/crater-images/nvidia-pytorch:24.08-py3",
    "volumeMounts": [
      {
        "type": 1,
        "subPath": "liuxw24",
        "mountPath": "/home/liuxw24"
      }
    ],
    "envs": [],
    "observability": {
      "tbEnable": false
    },
    "nodeSelector": {
      "enable": false
    }
  }
}

You can see that the submitted job has successfully started.

Managing Created Jobs

Click the job name to navigate to the job details page
Details: Navigate to the job details page
Clone: Clone the job using the current job configuration (convenient for users to resubmit jobs with similar configurations)
Stop: Stop the current job and release the resources it is using

Clicking "Clone" shows the following page:

You can see that a job with the same configuration as the cloned job is automatically created (auto-filled). Users can make minor adjustments and submit it.

Job Details Page

The job details page includes basic information such as the job's associated account, creator, job status, creation time, start time, and completion time.

It also provides various ways to monitor and manage the job.
