I have a VM instance with Matillion - a default deploy from the Azure Marketplace. I have scheduled the start/stop with automation. It ran last night and appeared that the VM was on. However, upon trying to login to the VM using the public IP, I was not able to connect. Checking the VM and the status, it was saying that it was still starting up (2 hours later). I restarted the instance manually, and it restarted in just a minute or so and I was able to log in.
Is there some reason the automation would not start the instance properly, not allowing full functionality of Matillion?
