Dead Kernel while working on jupyter notebook in Google Cloud Datalab

Question

I have been working on a GCP for one of my current projects and I occasionally use Datalab for writing snippets of data wrangling/processing codes. I have succesfully set up my project and VM and have established a connection to datalab from my cloud shell, but when I am trying to create a new jupyter notebook I am facing an error saying "Not Found". I am even unable to edit my existing notebooks as all the notebooks have a dead kernel (a time bomb comes up) which are also not giving me an option to restart the kernel. I have tried re-establishing the datalab connection multiple times but that does not seem to work. My teammates who use the same instance for other project work are facing similar issues. Kindly help.

Thank you

Answer 1

Datalab instances are single-user only . If multiple people try to use the same instance, then things can randomly break.

If each team member is a project editor , each can create their own Cloud Datalab instances.

Alternatively, you can share an email address among multiple people.
