Can't list my VM instance

Google Cloud Compute Infrastructure

Hi

I hope this is the right forum

I was working on a test VM instance on my Google Compute engine instances

Suddenly the SSH connection is gone, and i can’t log in with SSH any more. I also can’t see the instances in my dashboard. The spinner keeps on spinning, and no info is visible

I am at USA region 2 (i believe - can’t check).

I see a shutdown event in the logs:

{

insertId: “3”

jsonPayload: {3}
logName: “projects/darkaurora-1491368819827/logs/compute.googleapis.com%2Fshielded_vm_integrity”
receiveTimestamp: “2023-02-15T16:49:53.278260645Z”

resource: {2}
severity: “NOTICE”
timestamp: “2023-02-15T16:49:51.269379112Z”

}

What is going on? Where is the problem? Thank you.

Hello seany,

By any chance, have you tried logging out and in to your console? And check if the vms will show up again in your Compute Engine.

Once your vms is showing in your Compute Engine, kindly check if you can try to restart your instances and see if you can connect through SSH.

I will be adding a documentation as well for some troubleshooting steps on SSH errors to your vms.
