Your VPS is rebuilt from scratch since restoring from the snapshot did not work. The new version is not using backing store, which means everything needed is actually within your qcow2 file.

Everything should work as before. I have tested that I can get in on IPv4 and on IPv6. Please remove my keys if you wish. Password login is disabled. Yabs from inside your VPS is shown below.

Please post here to let us know if you get in and if everything looks okay.

Sorry about continuing problems!

Best wishes!

No worries, I got in and all looks good. Thanks for fixing.

Wow! The VPS which was restored using @cmeerw's brilliant method of copying the deleted qcow2 file out of /proc seems to have worked! At the least, the VPS now is running again, and it responds to ping and ping6. I'm waiting to hear from the client about whether he can log in and if everything looks good. Command line output posted at https://www.nodeseek.com/post-431916-37#365. Double wow if the VPS looks good from inside!!
