Description

These changes are for the fast resume mode of elastic training where training is paused if a slice is lost and resumes when the slice has returned. It is intended to make workload startup time after hardware failure much quicker because there is no need to communicate to GCS to restore from a checkpoint. It accomplishes this by not restarting the workload and only restarting the affected slices.

Tests

It is not thoroughly tested at this state but it it has successfully fast resumed from a simulated slice failure.
