[TASK] Ray should use its own temporary directory

Open joshua-cogliati-inl opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments


Issue Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We noticed that ray was trying to write to the file /tmp/ray/dashboard_url but it failed because another user already had created the file. This might be a problem.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be useful if we could tell ray to choose a temporary directory that is unique and not likely to be used already.

There is an option in Ray to disable the instance of the dashboard (used to monitor the resources on the fly). The setting is in Ray.init (double check that this is not already used in RAVEN)
