Unable to ssh into snapshot image instance

[bogedy]

Hello, I think cc-snapshot is not working as intended for me. My apologies if I'm simply missing something.

A few days ago I had a lease on a p100 node. I loaded up a stock CC-Ubuntu16.04 image. I installed my programs (CUDA, Tensorflow, related packages), and then I ran cc-snapshot. I got a warning that the image may be too large and have issues, but I told it to go ahead. I did all of this over ssh, which was working fine. I ran ls -a and saw the .ssh directory in the home folder.

Then I had a lease on a p100 nvlink node. I selected the snapshot image I created for the source option. I couldn't ssh into the instance, I got the error, Connection closed by 129.114.108.45 port 22 when I tried to ssh in. I opened the console on the web interface and ran ls -a in the home directory and saw that there was no .ssh directory. I tried creating one and adding the public key to an authorized_keys file, but that didn't change anything.

Am I missing something about how to load up a cc-snapshot image? Why doesn't my new instance have a .ssh directory?

@bogedy Apologize for the delay in response! If you still have the issue, could you please let me know the name of your image?
