hello, I’m having trouble running tensorboard as well:
Is there a way to pause/unpause execution of code cells in google colab? I know we can interrupt and stop code cells but can we pause/unpause?
Maybe I  need to give some background on what I’m trying to do:
I have tensorboard watching a folder on google drive for my log dir for changes to my model’s metrics. It’s on a separate instance of colab since I can’t run two instances of a code cell at the same time on the same colab notebook (run tenorboard in one cell in parallel to another cell running my training and eval script…). I realized having tensorboard on a separate instance sort of works but it seems when tensorflow updates log files… the file isn’t updated in real time across google drive  end points… so for the latest log dir files to be written and synced the code has to stop… that’s when it syncs the files across google drive… and that’s when tensorboard detects a change and sees the files… so this is why I was wondering if I could “stop”, “resume” code cells… just to have those log directory files written and synced then I can unpause the code cells and continue training… or is there another way to do this?
I know that on a local machine this isn’t a problem… just run all the python scripts in parallel… just wondering how to do it in google colab. Thanks for any advice!
