Sagemaker: Exceeded max job duration of 65 days, anyway to extend?

Question

We have a rather large labeling job and we are about halfway through it and got this error.  Is there anyway to continue the job?  I tried creating a comprehend custom model from what we had done and it doesn't seem to work either.

Answer

Hi,

As per documentation, the maximum duration of a job is 5 days. And it's not adjustable: see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/sagemaker.html

```
Longest run time for a processing job	Each supported Region: 432,000 Seconds	No	Longest run time for a processing job
```

Now, a simple question: you say it's a labelling job. So, why don't you chunk your big input data into smaller subsets that you label in independent jobs each lasting less than 5 days?

Best,

Didier
