torch.distributed.DistBackendError: NCCL error in: ../torch/csrc/distributed/c10d/ProcessGroupNCCL.cpp:1333, remote process exited or there was a network error, NCCL version 2.18.6

Hi, I successfully ran the 'cifar10_deepspeed.py' example on a single node (2xNVIDIA 3090). Now I want to run the same program on multi-nodes (2 nodes each have 2 3090s.). I refer to the example here to run my program.

my hostfile:

192.168.3.100 slots=2
192.168.3.101 slots=2

then I ran the command:

deepspeed --num_gpus 2 --num_nodes 2 --master_addr 192.168.3.100 --hostfile hostfile cifar10_deepspeed.py --deepspeed_config ds_config.json

I also ran these commands on both 192.168.3.100 and 192.168.3.101:

export NCCL_IB_DISABLE=1
export NCCL_SOCKET_IFNAME=eno1
export NCCL_P2P_DISABLE=1
export NCCL_DEBUG=INFO

And I met the error:

It looks like something wrong with NCCL? I'm not sure how to fix it. Do you have any suggestions? :)

@Rainbowman0, to help with further investigation, can you try running the micro benchmarks here https://github.com/microsoft/DeepSpeedExamples/tree/master/benchmarks/communication

Thank you! I will have a try! :)

OHHH!! I think it is because the socket interface error. I have solved it by below steps: First run: ifconfig to show the socket interfaces that can be used: image (I can't use 'eno1' interface, which is strange. So i use the 'br0' finally.)

open ~/.bashrc:

vim ~/.bashrc

write these commands at the bottom:

export NCCL_IB_DISABLE=1
export NCCL_SOCKET_IFNAME=br01 # for me it is 'br0' interface, you should use yours :)
export NCCL_P2P_DISABLE=1
export NCCL_DEBUG=INFO

reload ~/.bashrc

source ~/.bashrc

Both 192.168.3.100 and 192.168.3.101 follow the same steps. :)
