Single Node Multi GPU FlanT5 fine-tuning using HF Dataset and HF Trainer
I have been stuck on this for quite a while and would really appreciate it if someone could help.So, I am trying to fine-tune a FlanT5-Large on a dataset using the HF dataset and HF trainer. I want to do it in a distributed fashion as my machine has 2 GPUs.Attempt 1This was the script I used -single_node_multi_gpu_v0.py · GitHubTo test if this works for a single GPU, I didCUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python run_lora_train.py --train_file_path datasets/train_sample.csv --valid_file_path datasets/valid_sample.csv --output_dir test_flant5_largeand it worked fine.It has been mentioned on a few Pytorch/HF Forums that extending this to single node multip GPU setting only requires changing how the script is launched. So I did this -torchrun --nproc_per_node 2 run_lora_train.py --train_file_path datasets/train_sample.csv --valid_file_path datasets/valid_sample.csv --output_dir test_flant5_largeI get this error -File "run_lora_train.py", line 124, in <module>

Were you able to fix this issue? I’ve been stuck on the same thing for quite some time now. Not sure what the issue is.

@mariosasko@muellerzrSorry for directly pinging to this discussion, but I’ve encountered the same issue and have been stuck on it for a while now. I’ve tested multiple scripts and it seems that HuggingFace’s Trainer class simply doesn’t work for single-node multi-gpu setups. When I test with single gpu, the training runs without a problem. However, when I run with multi-gpu, the training deadlocks and makes zero progress (even if given enough time).As@shreyansh26said in his post, I also attempted to use Pytorch’s torchrun, but encountered that vague error. Could it be that something is wrong with HuggingFace’s Trainer class for multi-gpu setups, or is it specifically a script issue? For reference here is the Falcon-7b finetuning script that works with a single gpu but deadlocks with multiple:from datasets import load_dataset

For everyone else in this discussion, I managed to find this section of transformers documents that explains how to use the accelerate api in conjunction with huggingface’s trainer (its at the botttom of the page). Here’s the link:huggingface.coTrainerWe’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
