Using scp to copy a folder on a custom port

while true;
do
date;
scp -rp -P 2222 $SOURCE_DIRECTORY $REMOTE_USER@$REMOTE_SERVER:$DESTINATION_DIRECTORY;
sleep 60;
done;

The above code was used to copy the contents of a local folder to a remote one every one minute. We did not want to lose the metadata of the files (including the modification date of the files) so we used the -p parameter to preserve that information.

The -P 2222 parameter instructs scp to use a different port rather the default.

The -r is used to instruct the copy to get all contents of the folder and its sub-folders.

The above code as a one-liner is:

while true; do date; scp -rp -P 2222 $SOURCE_DIRECTORY $REMOTE_USER@$REMOTE_SERVER:$DESTINATION_DIRECTORY; sleep 60; done;


Download Large Jupyter Workspace files

Recently, we were working on a Jupyter Workspace at anyscale-training.com/jupyter/lab. As there was no option to download all files of the workspace nor there was a way to create an archive from the GUI, we followed the procedure below (that we also use on Coursera.org and works like a charm):

First, we clicked on the blue button with the + sign in it.
That opened the Launcher tab that is visible on the image above.
From there, we clicked on the Terminal button under the Other category.

In the terminal, we executed the following command to create a compressed archive of all the files we needed to download:

tar -czf Ray-RLLib-Tutorials.tar.gz ray_tutorial/ Ray-Tutorial/ rllib_tutorials/;

After the command completed its execution, we could see our archive on the left list of files. By right-clicking it we we are able to initiate its download. Unfortunately, after the first 20MB the download would always crash! To fix this issue, we split the archive to multiple archives of 10MB each, then downloaded them individually and finally merged them back together on our PC. The command to split the compressed archive to multiple smaller archives of fixed size was the following:

tar -czf - ray_tutorial/ Ray-Tutorial/ rllib_tutorials/ | split --bytes=10MB - Ray-RLLib-Tutorials.tar.gz.;

After downloading those files one by one by right-clicking on them and then selecting the Download option we recreated the original structure on our PC using the following command:

cat Ray-RLLib-Tutorials.tar.gz.* | tar xzvf -;

To clean up both the remote Server and our Local PC, we issued the following command:

rm Ray-RLLib-Tutorials.tar.gz.*;

This is a guide on how to download a very big Jupyter workspace by splitting it to multiple smaller files using the console.


Rough notes on Ray

Just a bunch of snippets that we used to deploy a local Ray cluster. We couldn’t get the second node to connect to the cluster even though no error was given.

 Uninstall Docker Engine
 Uninstall the Docker Engine, CLI, and Containerd packages:
 sudo apt-get purge docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
 Images, containers, volumes, or customized configuration files on your host are not automatically removed. To delete all images, containers, and volumes:
 sudo rm -rf /var/lib/docker
  sudo rm -rf /var/lib/containerd
 You must delete any edited configuration files manually.


 2021-06-09 03:56:34,453    WARNING services.py:1740 -- WARNING: The object store is using /tmp instead of /dev/shm because /dev/shm has only 7963275264 bytes available. This will harm performance! You may be able to free up space by deleting files in /dev/shm. If you are inside a Docker container, you can increase /dev/shm size by passing '--shm-size=10.24gb' to 'docker run' (or add it to the run_options list in a Ray cluster config). Make sure to set this to more than 30% of available RAM.

Do not use the snap version of docker for Ray on Ubuntu 20.04LTS

If you are trying to deploy a local Ray cluster on Ubuntu machines and you are getting the following error:
