Problem Description On‑premise LLM inference nodes equipped with NVIDIA GPUs (e.g., A100 40 GiB, RTX 3090 24 GiB) crash when processing prompts that exceed the pre‑allocated key‑value (KV) cache size. The failure manifests as a CUDA out‑of‑memory (OOM) exception during the attention kernel launch. Typical log excerpts: [2026-08-10 14:32:07] ERROR – torch.cuda.OutOfMemoryError: CUDA out of memory. Tried to allocate 2.00 … Read more

Haystack scheduler pod placement failure due to insufficient GPU

Problem Description In a Haystack deployment that runs multi‑GPU training jobs, the scheduler pod remains Pending with events such as: 0/5 nodes are available: 5 Insufficient gpu or FailedScheduling: pod has unschedulable: no nodes match node selector These failures prevent the haystack-scheduler from launching training workers, effectively blocking any multi‑GPU training pipeline. Root Cause Analysis … Read more

Ingress routing misconfiguration in Docker GPU cluster

Problem: HAProxy Timeouts During High‑Throughput Batch Ingestion In a multi‑GPU training cluster, HAProxy fronts a set of tensorflow/torchserve workers that accept large JSON or binary payloads via HTTP POST. During nightly batch uploads (10 GB + per request) clients observe: HTTP 504 “Gateway Timeout” with HAProxy log entry SC (client timeout) Intermittent HTTP 502 “Bad Gateway” with log entry sH … Read more

AMD GPU context window overflow in air-gapped environment

Problem Description In an air‑gapped deployment of large language models (LLMs) on AMD GPUs, inference jobs abort once the prompt length exceeds a certain token count. The failure manifests as memory allocation errors that appear unrelated to the reported free VRAM. Typical log excerpts: 2026-07-12 14:03:21 [INFO] Starting inference on model LLaMA-13B 2026-07-12 14:03:22 [ERROR] … Read more

TensorRT batch inference timeout on GPU during high concurrency

Modern airport terminal building with signage

Problem – TensorRT Batch Inference Times Out Under High Concurrency In a production GPU inference service the following symptoms appear when the request rate spikes: Requests that submit a batched input to IExecutionContext::enqueueV2 return false after ~10 s. Server logs contain messages such as: [ERROR] Failed to enqueue inference: Timeout while waiting for GPU [TensorRT] Execution … Read more

AMD GPU token refresh failure during disaster recovery

Amd ryzen 6000 series processor on circuit board background

Problem – Token Refresh Failure During Disaster Recovery on AMD GPU Systems During a planned disaster‑recovery (DR) drill, AI inference workloads that rely on AMD Instinct GPUs stopped abruptly after the failover to the backup cluster. The ROCm runtime emitted the following error: TokenRefreshError: failed to refresh access token – ROCm runtime aborts with exit … Read more
