If working with GPU machines, don’t forget to install CUDA and cuDNN before installation.
Install¶
Currently quick installation is only possible with Ubuntu through the debian packaging system.
# CPU-only package:
wget -O poseidon-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb https://github.com/petuum-inc/storage/blob/master/poseidon/deb/ubuntu/cpu/poseidon-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb?raw=true
sudo dpkg -i poseidon-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb
# GPU-enabled package:
wget -O poseidon-gpu-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb https://github.com/petuum-inc/storage/blob/master/poseidon/deb/ubuntu/gpu/poseidon-gpu-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb?raw=true
sudo dpkg -i poseidon-gpu-ubuntu1404_1.0.1_amd64.deb
Uninstall¶
Uninstalling with the debian packaging manager simply means removing the package, called poseidon
or poseidon-gpu
:
# CPU-only package:
sudo apt-get remove poseidon
# GPU-enabled package:
sudo apt-get remove poseidon-gpu
