The following section list known issues and workarounds for AI Hypercomputer.
The metadata server might display old physicalHost VM metadata
After experiencing a
host error or
using the
report faulty host API to
move an instance to a new host, when you
query the metadata server,
it might display the
physicalHost metadata of the instance's previous host.
To workaround this issue, do one of the following:
- Use the
instances.getmethod or thegcloud compute instances describecommand to retrieve the correctphysicalHostinformation. - Stop and then start your
instance. This process updates the
physicalHostinformation in the metadata server. - Wait 24 hours for the impacted instance's
physicalHostinformation to be updated.
