Heya @0b631034d31d4796a4e2cc94743098,

Apart from what has been said, if you can’t enter your Droplet, you can use the Recovery Console

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/droplets/how-to/recovery/recovery-console/

The Recovery Console provides out-of-band access and is available regardless of your network settings. It emulates the access you would have if you were sitting down with a keyboard and monitor attached to the actual server. You can use this feature to log in and revert bad settings to regain normal access.

Hey!

What you could do is to follow the steps here on how to install the DigitalOcean monitoring agent:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/monitoring/how-to/install-agent/

If the UI method does not work, I would recommend following the ‘Installing the Metrics Agent Manually’ section:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/monitoring/how-to/install-agent/#manually

Let me know how it goes!

Best,

Bobby
