data4gfm Datastore 'Mount Failed' for GFM_SYNAI compute instance

Question

I am getting a 'Mount Failed' error, trying to mount the data4gfm Datastore in a GFM_SYNAI compute instance. It appears the failure is due to a container that is not running?

Here is the error message:
Failed to copy config.json: command 'docker exec -i azureml_DataSidecar cp /mnt/hostfs/config.json /' failed: exit status 1, Error response from daemon: Container adb4d8c6361c0b4ea51110f646f1fc9f1faa2756cd04bb48ad3f2777ad6b6387 is not running

Hi Mike Bianco (Capgemini America Inc),

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

Check the status of the containers. Try restarting the DataSidecar container:
Access the compute instance using SSH or a remote terminal. Run the following Docker commands to verify and restart the container:

# List all containers
docker ps -a

# Restart the data sidecar container
docker start <container_id>

Review the logs of the AzureML job and the Docker container for more details about the failure. Use the Azure portal or SDK for job log analysis.
