Topic Description

When I launch SimulationApp using a conda environment with isaac-sim 4.1.0 on a Slurm cluster with multiple 4090 GPUs (> 64), I get the following error. When the number of tasks is less than 64, this situation will not occur. It looks like carb.datastore.plugin has a file lock, and the maximum is set to 64. How can I increase this value?

We’re currently checking with our team regarding your issue. In the meantime, could you please try using Isaac Sim version 4.5.0?

Please try running the application with the following option to disable UJITSO-based physX cooking and see if the issue persists.
--/physics/cooking/ujitsoCollisionCooking=false

6

I add this simulation_app._carb_settings.set(“/physics/cooking/ujitsoCollisionCooking”, False)
after launching SimulationApp, but this error still exsit.

7

Please try launching your application with the command line option directly. Setting it after launching may not work.

8

Like this? or where insert the command?

CONFIG = {"/physics/cooking/ujitsoCollisionCooking": False}
simulation_app = SimulationApp(launch_config=CONFIG)
9

No, running your command with --/physics/cooking/ujitsoCollisionCooking=false.

10

Does the option resolve this problem?

Sorry to have kept you waiting, I did not start with --/physics/cooking/ujitsoCollisionCooking=false. I checked my program log again according to the original startup method. Although the error mentioned above will be reported when more than 64 isaac sims are started at one time, it will not freeze and will be abnormally normal. The program can run normally.
