How severe does this issue affect your experience of using Ray?
High: It blocks me to complete my task.
I am creating actors with unique name and lifetime detached. Now sometimes, when I am trying to access it by name, the get_actor call is blocking the functionality (Though actor is alive). Is there any way to add timeout in ray.get_actor() function.
This method is a sync call and it’ll timeout after 60s. This can be modified by setting OS env RAY_gcs_server_request_timeout_seconds before starting the cluster.
Yes, get_actor is being released when I tested separately. Still, I am facing issue in my pipeline so I think there could be some other blocking issues. Thanks for your support.
