​
Experiment Status

TypeDescription
PendingAn experiment is created with a pending status until the experiment node is ready. (VESSL-managed experiment only)
RunningThe experiment is running.
CompletedThe experiment has successfully finished (exited in 0).
IdleThe experiment is completed but still approachable due to the termination protection. (VESSL-managed experiment only)
FailedThe experiment has unsuccessfully finished.
VESSL-managed experiments’ status depends on its Kubernetes pod lifecycle.
To track the progress of your running experiment, use vessl.progress. VESSL will calculate the remaining running time, which you can view by hovering over the status mark.

​
Experiment Terminal

If you activate the TERMINAL, you can SSH access the experiment container through a web terminal. You can directly attach the SSH terminal to the experiment process or open a new experiment shell.

​
Attaching to the experiment process

By attaching SSH directly to the experiment process, you can view the same logs displayed on the Web Console under the LOGS tab. You can take various commands such as interrupting the process.

​
Creating a new shell

Opening a new SSH terminal allows you to navigate the experiment container to see where the datasets or projects are mounted.

​
Reproducing Experiments

One of the great features of VESSL is that all the experiments can be reproduced. VESSL keeps track of all experiment configurations including the dataset snapshot and source code version. and allows you to reproduce any experiment with just a single click. You can reproduce experiments either on the Web Console or via VESSL CLI.

​
Terminating Experiments

You can stop running the experiment and delete the experiment pod.
