Failover failed instance failed

[Samuel Logan]

We attempted to failover, now the instance says "status: failed" with no option to do anything other than delete the instance

Hello Samuel, 

There could be various reasons for the Cloud SQL instance failover process to fail with message "status: failed" which you have shared. 

It is difficult to determine the root cause and provide work around to resolve the issue without inspecting your Google Cloud Platform project, Stackdriver Logging Logs and internal monitoring tools. 

I have tried to look for Project which might be associated with your email address associated with this post internally where I have seen so many projects that are associated with the email. Due to that it was not possible to identify the project in question. 

I would recommend you to create a Cloud SQL Public Issue under “Storage and Databases” section by going here as the issue may be required to refer to the Cloud SQL Engineering team to resolve it. Please select the private component as probably you will have to share project specific information, so that it is not visible to the public. One of the Google Cloud Platform Support Agents will assist you to resolve your issue.

Please note that Google Groups is only meant for general discussion related to Google Cloud Platform products which are not technical in nature, service status updates and release notes, and ranging from book recommendations to creative shortcuts.
