[Bug]: Failed To Parse GPU JSON
What is the Issue?
The issue at hand is a failed attempt to parse GPU JSON data, resulting in an error message that reads "json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of type models.GPUResponse." This error is being encountered on a server running a container with an NVIDIA GPU.
What Happened?
The error message indicates that the server is unable to parse the GPU JSON data in the expected format. The server is running a container with an NVIDIA GPU, and the nvidia-smi
command is being used to monitor the GPU's performance. However, the server is unable to parse the GPU JSON data, resulting in the error message.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
To reproduce the issue, follow these steps:
- Run the
docker logs corecontrol-agent-1
command to view the container's logs. - Look for the error message "Failed to parse GPU JSON: json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of type models.GPUResponse."
- Check the server's configuration to ensure that the GPU JSON data is being generated correctly.
- Verify that the server is running the correct version of the container and that the NVIDIA GPU is properly configured.
Operating System and Version
The server is running on a Linux operating system with version v1.0.1.
