Hi Suresh,

I have never used Tensor Flow, so not sure if I’ll be able to help there. But 
with respect to the GPU support for Mesos, the current installation on EC2 
(v1.0.1) does detect GPUs, and the same is listed on their dashboard (NOTE: our 
cluster is not GPU enabled, hence mesos dashboard shows GPU=0).

Also, how are you installing Mesos on mac? Did you install any virtualization 
software to create VMs (for master/slave)?

Thanks and Regards,
Gourav Shenoy

Subject: Mesos GPU Support

Hi All,

I am trying some tensor flow tutorials and seem to have gone on a wrong 
tangent. Can any of the Mesos hackers on this list help with get me get back on 
track?

I want run through benchmarks in [1] on mac with a GT 650M card. I got the 
bundled example working but stuck in getting the tensor flow cnn tutorial 
example [2] working natively on my mac. I tried to deploy the mesos first so I 
could try to run tensor flow from Marathon as described in [3]. Have any of you 
managed to get Mesos working on a Mac? If so, can you please point me to 
instructions which worked for you?

I want to have Mesos recognize and use the GPU card. From [4], it looks like 
the latest release should have GPU support natively within mesos. Have any one 
tried it? I am working through the tutorial [5] but I am blocked since mesos on 
mac is not working correctly in the first place. But this tutorial also seem to 
suggest to use spark to run tensor flow jobs. Any suggestions on what is the 
best way to run tensor flow on gpu’s and use Mesos manage these jobs? I prefer 
to do it on a mac, but if thats a bad idea, can try these steps on EC2 instead.

Thanks,
Suresh
