Running Ray Cluster on Kubernetes

Disclaimer:

Many thanks to the instructions by Robert and Charles: found on here

Instructions

For most up-to-date set-up instructions: Medium Blog Post

ray-project here

Setup Google Cloud and Install Cloud SDK

Follow instructions from Google here to install Cloud SDK for Ubuntu.

Create a new project on Google Cloud Console and start a Kubernetes Cluster in that project.

Run gcloud init and follow the prompted instructions

Install kubectl on your local machine using either gcloud components install kubectl or (Instructions)

On your GCloud Console goto ->Project->Kubernetes Engine->Clusters and click on Connect. Paste the code to command-line to give kubectl access to your cluster.

Build and Push Docker Image

Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/jhpenger/ray-kubernetes.git

Edit build.sh, head.yml, worker.yml: replace tutorial-218804 with your project-ID

Run:

bash build.sh
docker push <image-tag>

Deploying Pods on Kubernetes Cluster

In the cloned repository:

kubectl create -f head.yml

Wait for the ray-head pod to be fully running. You can check pods' status with kubectl get pods. If your head pod crashes kubectl logs ray-head to debug.

Obtain ray-head's Public Key by either:

  1. kubectl logs ray-head (key will be near bottom of output)
  2. kubectl exec -it ray-head bash; Then more ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Edit worker.yml: replace <PASTE-PUBKEY-HERE-ONELINE> with ray-head's Public Key

If you are in ray-head, exit back to your local machine and run:

kubectl create -f worker.yml

Testing Your Cluster

I mounted a simple python script (modified from exercise04.ipynb found here) to test the cluster. First, get into your ray-head with kubectl exec -it ray-head bash. Then run:

python /ray-kubernetes/test_cluster.py $MY_POD_IP:6379

You can choose to define # of actors by passing in an additional parameter. (e.g. python /ray-kubernetes/test_cluster.py $MY_POD_IP:6379 8888). Default is set to 136. #-of-actors should be no more than # of CPU cores in your cluster (not # of CPUs) Your expected run-time should be ~2.5 seconds, but might be slower due to reaching cluster's max CPU capacity.

Notes

Instructions setup for Koç Lab @ University of California Santa Barbara.

We are trying to utilize Ray cluster to do reinforcement learning on Gibson Enviroment.

Currently in the very early stages of exploring ray and Gibson. Would greately appreciate guidance from anyone with:

  • experience in running reinforcement earning simulations on large clusters using GCloud or AWS.
  • using Google's Preemptible VM Instances with ray to cut down costs. Specifically in dealing with what to do when pre-emptible instance restarts.
