Commands

mila init

Set up your access to the mila cluster interactively. Have your username and password ready!

  • Set up your SSH config for easy connection with ssh mila
  • Set up your public key if you don't already have them
  • Copy your public key over to the cluster for passwordless auth
  • Set up a public key on the login node to enable ssh into compute nodes

mila code

Connect a VSCode instance to a compute node. mila code first allocates a compute node using slurm (you can pass slurm options as well), and then calls the code command with the appropriate options to start a remote coding session on the allocated node.

You can simply Ctrl+C the process to end the session.

usage: mila code [-h] PATH ...

positional arguments:
  PATH
  SLURM_OPTS

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

For example:

mila code path/to/my/experiment
