Intelligent Computing LINGJUN:Create Lingjun Cluster

Last Updated:Jun 23, 2026

A Lingjun cluster is the basic unit for using Lingjun compute nodes. Depending on the usage scenario, you can create either a basic Lingjun cluster or a PAI Lingjun cluster.

Prerequisites

You have registered and verified your Alibaba Cloud account and purchased a Lingjun node. For more information, see Purchase a Lingjun node.

Creation Flow

A basic Lingjun cluster provides a clean compute environment for users who want to install and configure the development environment on their own. The creation process includes the following steps:

  1. Configure clusters and groups: Set basic information such as cluster ID, resource group, and node model.

  2. Configure the cluster network: Set network parameters such as VPC, vSwitch, and security group. In some regions, you need to configure Lingjun connection instances.

  3. Configure software instance parameters: optionally configure a CPFS for Lingjun file system.

  4. Review the configuration and create the cluster.

For detailed steps, see Create Lingjun Basic Cluster.

Next steps

After the cluster is created, you can connect to Lingjun nodes over SSH, install your development environment and AI frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow, and start AI model training jobs.
