RuntimeError: could not create an engine

Hi Intel Team

I am observing "could not create an engine" error in executing demo.py example from "oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch Getting Started Sample*". The code is run on Saphire node with 4 PVCs at TACC system. Any suggestions on identifying the cause and fixing it?

oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch Getting Started Sample と、26 行目および 67 行目で報告されている demo.py のエントリポイントから始め、次に -dev xpu を指定して mpirun -n 2 を使用するコマンドを再現します。issue に記載されている PyTorch と Intel Extension for PyTorch のバージョンを確認します。完了条件は、engine 作成の原因を特定し、指定された PVC セットアップで sample が正常に実行されることを確認することです。
