 The variable name is actually misleading; since it does NOT mean the amount of devices, but rather the physical device number assigned by the kernel (e.g. /dev/nvidia2).
-For example: If you requested multiple gpu's from Slurm (--gres=gpu:2), the CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES variable should contain two numbers(0-3 in this case) separated by a comma (e.g. 1,3).
+For example: If you requested multiple gpu's from Slurm (--gres=gpu:2), the CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES variable should contain two numbers(0-3 in this case) separated by a comma (e.g. 0,1).
+The numbering is relative and specific to you. For example: two users with one job which require two gpus each could be assigned non-sequential gpu numbers. However CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES will look like this for both users: 0,1
