View source on GitHub

Initializes a distributed TPU system for use with TensorFlow.

tf.compat.v1.tpu.initialize_system(
    embedding_config=None, job=None, compilation_failure_closes_chips=True
)

Args:

• embedding_config: If not None, a TPUEmbeddingConfiguration proto describing the desired configuration of the hardware embedding lookup tables. If embedding_config is None, no hardware embeddings can be used.
• job: The job (the XXX in TensorFlow device specification /job:XXX) that contains the TPU devices that will be initialized. If job=None it is assumed there is only one job in the TensorFlow flock, and an error will be returned if this assumption does not hold.
• compilation_failure_closes_chips: Set the configuration whether we want to close TPU chips when there is a compilation failure.

Returns:

A serialized TopologyProto that describes the TPU system. Note: the topology must be evaluated using Session.run before it can be used.
