Inspect for your contributions to our [metrics dashboard](https://metrics.solana.com:3000/d/testnet-beta/testnet-monitor-beta?refresh=60s&orgId=2&var-testnet=testnet-beta&var-hostid=All).
#### Metrics Server Maintenance
Sometimes the dashboard becomes unresponsive. This happens due to glitch in the metrics server.
The current solution is to reset the metrics server. Use the following steps.
1. The server is hosted in a GCP VM instance. Check if the VM instance is down by trying to SSH
into it from the GCP console. The name of the VM is ```metrics-solana-com```.
2. If the VM is inaccessible, reset it from the GCP console.
3. Once VM is up (or, was already up), the metrics services can be restarted from build automation.
4. Navigate to https://buildkite.com/solana-labs/metrics-dot-solana-dot-com in your web browser
5. Click on ```New Build```
6. This will show a pop up dialog. Click on ```options``` drop down.
7. Type in ```FORCE_START=true``` in ```Environment Variables``` text box.
8. Click ```Create Build```
9. This will restart the metrics services, and the dashboards should be accessible afterwards.
