Hi All,

I am currently running a PoC on GCP for a client and the first VM Instance I created has stopped working.

I have 3 full days of work setting up this machine and would really light to restore the mySQL Data from the machine at the least.

Can anyone tell me how I recover my data in GCP from a machine that keeps reporting the below???

I am not able to SSH into the machine... :(

The issue started occurring just after I followed a "Recommendation" to upgrade the VM Instance to a more powerful VM.

Please can someone assist!

See log below:

Hello,
Based on the console logs that you shared, the issue seems to come from this line:
` Feb 19 16:42:48 vm-euwest-wp-01 systemd[1]: systemd-logind.service: Failed to run 'start' task: No space left on device `

You can resolve this situation by expanding your boot disk as mentioned here [1].
