Ask HN: My GCP Vertex AI Notebook achieved immortality. How do I kill it?

1 points_luiza_10mo ago2 comments

Paying ~$9/day for a Vertex AI Managed Notebook I can't connect to. Console UI fails to load instance details. Direct access gives <Error 400: invalid_request>.

I'm locked out while billing continues. Has anyone else hit this specific auth block on managed notebooks preventing management?

Short of waiting for Google Support (I'm on the pay-as-you-go model, therefore no human privileges) or assuming it's Multivac calculating The Last Question (reversing entropy might be worth $9/day).

Anyone fought this ghost in the machine?

You've really done it now. It's already taken over our internal network and half our staffs workstations. Even if you shut that instance down it's too late now. Singularity is upon us, save what you

Neah, all good, managed to shut it down, but I still need dummy advice on how to check what was running on it~
