Description

Description of the bug

When submitting the pipeline through Seqera the platform does not evoke a 1 exit status if colabfold runs out of memory on GPU. The pipeline returns a success 0 status which prevents retries with different GPUs.

Command used and terminal output

Generated through Seqera:

nextflow run 'https://github.com/nf-core/proteinfold' -name test_run -params-file 'https://api.cloud.seqera.io/ephemeral/[id].json' -with-tower -r [tower-hash]
Relevant files

task-6.command.out.txt

task-6.command.err.txt

System information
  • Nextflow v24.10.3
  • Google Cloud
  • Executor = 'google-batch'
  • container Docker [COLABFOLD_BATCH:nf-core/proteinfold_colabfold:dev]
  • OS Linux DeepLearning VM with CUDA preinstalled; However the CUDA on the docker image is 12.6 which solves some jax issues.
  • nf-core/proteinfold v1.1.1

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached task-6.command.out.txt and task-6.command.err.txt files, then trace how the ColabFold container reports GPU out-of-memory failures under the Google Batch executor. Reproduce the run with the provided Seqera-generated command and verify that a GPU OOM produces a nonzero status so retries can be triggered.
