NearForm hosted macOS 10.15 mac minis offline

The three test and one release macOS 10.15 VMs on two mac minis we have hosted at NearForm are currently offline and cannot be ssh'ed into (No route to host). I've emailed Eamonn at NearForm. We still have the MacStadium hosted VMs so the CI should still be okay (albeit at reduced capacity).

These should be able to be recovered by logging on to the host machine itself and restarting the VMs inside VMWare Fusion.

The release VM and two of the test VMs are now back.
The VM for test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 fails to start (shows Apple logo with a progress bar that moves but the VM stops before the bar fills).

Going to admit defeat here. I have no idea how to work out what's up with that VM. Maybe it needs to be rebuilt. We have the other two NearForm-hosted macOS 10.15 test VM's and one orka-hosted for now (not sure what's up with the other orka macOS 10.15 VM) to get by.

Is it possible to just clone one of the others and then change the ip or something like that?

Quick update from my side, as I was digging into #2917 and I tried to connect all the nearform machines to collect some disk usage report. test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-1 and test-nearform-macos11.0-arm64-1 are fine, but test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 and test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 are appear offline (Network is unreachable )

Quick update from my side, as I was digging into #2917 and I tried to connect all the nearform machines to collect some disk usage report. test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-1 and test-nearform-macos11.0-arm64-1 are fine, but test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 and test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 are appear offline (Network is unreachable )

test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 and test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 are VMs on the same mac mini -- are you able to get into the host (details in build/infra-mac/nearform.md in the secrets repo)? test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 is broken but test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 may be recoverable (the VM may need restarting).

I connected to NodeMacMini2 using VNC and started test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 (it was just stopped).

Today I spent some time one the NearForm-hosted macs minis.

NodeMacMini2
- Updated to Catalina 10.15
- Updated macOS on test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-2 (patch-level)
- Recreated test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3. See Recreate test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-3 #3124
NodeMacMini
- Updated to Catalina 10.15
- Updated macOS on test-nearform-macos10.15-x64-1 and release-nearform-macos10.15-x64-1 (patch-level)

I think this issue can be closed now.
