Hi readers!
Passing along a question about our GPU availability on AnVIL:
Check out predefinedMachineType. You should be able to use any GPU available on GCP.
- See this Terra release note
- See relevant Cromwell documentation
- docs.cloud.google.com/compute/docs/gpus can give you an idea of different machine types (e.g.
g2-standard-8vsa4-highgpu-8g).
Previously on AnVIL, the attribute gpuType was used and supported only certain GPUs. GCP is gradually retiring gpuType in favor of predefinedMachineType so it is a good idea to prioritize predefinedMachineType in your workflows. There will be no additional gpuType options added, and the current ones are aging out (we already saw K80 go EOL a few years ago).
Cheers,
Ava
