accelerator Count
Parameters
value
The number of the accelerator cards of this type exposed to this instance. Often restricted to one of 1
, 2
, 4
, or 8
.
The Cloud Dataproc API can return unintuitive error messages when using accelerators; even when you have defined an accelerator, Auto Zone Placement does not exclusively select zones that have that accelerator available. If you get a 400 error that the accelerator can't be found, this is a likely cause. Make sure you check accelerator availability by zone if you are trying to use accelerators in a given zone.
