AWS SageMaker Notebook Instance is not continuing running the cell when I leave my Laptop to execute the cells over a period of time. Can you tell me how can I solve this?

Question

Hello,
When I leave the SageMaker Jupyter notebook to execute the cells for a long period of time, after about 8 hours, it is signing me out of the console and when I log back in, it is **not** running/continuing its execution of the cells. There was No error message displayed when this happened. When I left the notebook running, the laptop was ON and the screen was active. Could you tell me how can I leave the notebook to run for a long period of time without worrying about being active on the laptop all the time? Thank you.

To create the annotation for the PDF documents, it does it Amazon Ground Truth.

Hello - if you are being signed out of the AWS console, you may need to [set a longer IAM session duration, e.g. to 12 hours](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/singlesignon/latest/userguide/howtosessionduration.html).

If you are not being logged out of AWS console and your SageMaker notebook is still timing out, you may need to run your scripts using nohup command or use [SageMaker training](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/how-it-works-training.html) so training will continue even if you get disconnected from your Sagemaker notebook.

Hope this helps. Thank you!
