Last updated 1st September, 2022.

Objective

This tutorial covers the process of starting a job using a Visual Studio Code Remote via SSH.

Requirements

• an AI Training project created inside a Public Cloud project
• a user for AI Training
• installing the OVHcloud AI CLI

Installation

1. Install an OpenSSH compatible SSH client if one is not already present.
2. Install Visual Studio Code.
3. Install the Remote Development extension pack.

Start a job with the SSH feature

We will launch a job with the CLI, just choose the number of GPUs (<nb-gpus>) to use on your job and use the following command:

ovhai job run --gpu <nb-gpus> -s ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub ovhcom/ai-training-tensorflow:2.3.0

Once the job is Running, you can see the sshUrl with job get:

ovhai job get <job-id>

Configure VSCode Remote Development

Verify you can connect to the SSH host by running the following command from a terminal / PowerShell window replacing user\@hostname accordingly:

ssh <job-id>@gra.training.ai.cloud.ovh.net
