Tensorboard will not start

[Anonymous Student]

I get lots of error messages about “pthread_create failed: Resource temporarily unavailable” when trying to run tensorboard on a login node.

This might be for the same reasons that prevent VS Code connecting – see this topic for things to try.

Hi there,

Unfortunately I am also having the same issue. When trying to debug it I put in:

ps -elf | grep s1234567 (with my own student number)

and receieved these outputs:

When killing the nodes that I don’t need, in which column would I find the processing number?

[Simon King]

The names of the columns are shown in the first row of the output from ps, but grep is of course filtering them out. You need the value in the PID (process identity) column.

Try this, to see just the first row:

ps -elf | head -1

then this to find all your processes:

ps -elf | grep s1234567

or, here’s a clever way to run both commands together

ps -elf | head -1 && ps -elf | grep s1234567
