Mounting volumes from the host to the container

warning

The bind mounts feature is deprecated and will be removed in the future.

Please use predefined mounts by using the available environment variables.

Usage​

If you are using a container, you can mount some directories using the mounts parameter. Like so:

Workflow
resources:
  tasks: 1
  gpus: 0
  cpusPerTask: 1
  memPerCpu: 1024

steps:
  - name: map-root
    run:
      command: ping 10.0.0.1
      container:
        image: ubuntu:latest
        registry: registry-1.docker.io
        mounts:
          - hostDir: '/host'
            containerDir: '/container'
            options: rw

This feature allows you to mount /sys/fs/cgroups as read-only to monitor CPU and memory usage.

Predefined mounts​

DeepSquare automatically mounts a shared file system on all nodes during a job. This shared file-system only lives during the job, so no worries about cleaning it.

See environment variables for the path to the shared storage.
