Dask Dashboard Not Starting When Starting Scheduler With Api

I've set up a distributed system using dask. When I start the scheduler using the Python API, the dask scheduler doesn't mention starting the dashboard. As expected, I can not reac

Solution 1:

Firstly, even when starting the scheduler within a python process, you may wish to consider using LocalCluster:

cluster = dask.distributed.LocalCluster(processes=False, n_workers=0)

where you can reach the scheduler as cluster.scheduler, and cluster.scheduler.services includes "bokeh".

For instantiating directly as you are doing, you would need to specify the services= keyword to include the Bokeh dashboard plugin. The class to instantiate is distributed.bokeh.scheduler.BokehScheduler, something like

services={('bokeh', diagnostics_port): (BokehScheduler, {})}

Were you wanting to do something particular with the loop and thread you have created? Perhaps, in that case, you can be more specific about what you want to achieve.
