Burn Testing

Machines should be thoroughly tested before being listed on the RunPod platform.

Here is a simple guide to running a burn test for a few days.

Stop the RunPod agent by running

sudo systemctl stop runpod

Then you can kick off a gpu-burn run by typing

docker run --rm --gpus all gshaibi/gpu-burn -d 36000

You should also verify that your memory, CPU, and disk are up to the task. You can use the ngstress library to accomplish this.

When everything is verified okay, you can start the RunPod agent again by running

sudo systemctl start runpod
