Hi Shuli

Before using a particular machine, please use nvidia-smi to see if the
machine you are using has a card with free Video RAM.

Once you are sure of the machine and the card you want to use please use

$EXPORT CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=k

on the machine  with k being the free GPU Card.

this would ensure your CUDA job is only resident in the target GPU.

Best,

Chirag
