OS Login
So you want to just ssh into the vm like you do everything else, you don't want to use
gcloud ssh login
or the "in browser" ssh client.
great , you want "OS Login"
lots of steps:
1. for the VM set the enable-oslogin meta data value to "TRUE"
in tf like this:
metadata = { enable-oslogin = "TRUE" }
2. give the user the correct roles:
Computer OS Login ( for vanilla , non-root access ) Compute OS Admin login ( for root access via sudo )
via command line this I think:
gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding project-ID --member \ serviceAccount:"velos-manager@project-ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com" \ --role "roles/iam.serviceAccountUser" --no-user-output-enabled --quiet
