[Jupyter Notebook] Not opening

Hi,

I've been using the jupyter notebook through the workbench in Vertex AI and there hasn't been an issue for years. But yesterday I adjusted the boot disk and storage disk size and then it fails to load. It appears that I can run the notebook but it pops up an ever-loading blank page. I also migrated it from a 'user-managed notebook' to 'instances', and it is also stuck at loading. I attached the screenshots below. I wonder if anyone know what is happening?

The instance looks like thiszhitaoyin_0-1701855326119.png

And this is what happens when I try to open the user-managed notebook

Many Thanks !

It sounds like the changes you made to the disk sizes and the migration might have affected the functionality of your Jupyter Notebook in Vertex AI. From your description, it seems like the notebook environment is failing to load properly, resulting in a blank or continuously loading page.

A few things you could try:

  1. Check Resource Allocation: Ensure that the adjusted disk sizes and migration haven't caused resource constraints that might be affecting the notebook's functionality. Sometimes, insufficient resources can lead to loading issues.

  2. Review Logs: Check the logs or error messages in the Vertex AI console or logs associated with the notebook instance. This might provide insight into what's causing the loading problem.

  3. Revert Changes: If possible, revert the changes made to the disk sizes or the migration settings to see if the notebook environment starts functioning again. This will help isolate whether these changes are causing the issue.

  4. Restart Notebook Instance: Try restarting the notebook instance from the Vertex AI console. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve loading or initialization issues.

It's important to proceed with caution, especially when making changes to disk sizes or migration settings, as they can impact the functionality of services running on the cloud platform.
