Description

Motivation

The workflow e2e_prime is sometimes stuck and reaches timeout, while sometimes finishes normally. See https://github.com/volcengine/verl/actions/workflows/e2e_prime.yml for details.

Plan

  • Reproduce the issue locally with the container and commands used in the workflow.
  • Check where the root cause is.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the workflow logs for patterns of failure, and attempt to reproduce locally using the same container image and commands to identify the root cause.
