Stop the 2 VM instance
gcloud config set project my-pro
gcloud beta compute instances detach-disk old --disk old --zone namezone
gcloud beta compute instances attach-disk new --disk old --zone namezone
Start the new VM instance
sudo mkdir /old-disk
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /old-disk/
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop
sudo cp -r /deb-disk/opt/bitnami /opt
sudo umount /dev/sdb1
Stop the 2 VM instance
gcloud beta compute instances detach-disk new --disk old --zone namezone
gcloud beta compute instances attach-disk old --disk old --zone namezone --boot
Kindly advice as the VM is down and i need to restore it asap

Thanks echo resolved after executing
sudo tail -n40 /opt/bitnami/mysql/data/mysqld.log
and i got to know the permission is not enough
[ERROR] [MY-010958] [Server] Could not open log file.
[ERROR] [MY-010041] [Server] Can't init tc log
[ERROR] [MY-010119] [Server] Aborting

sudo chmod 777 /opt/bitnami/mysql/data
sudo chown mysql:root -R /opt/bitnami/mysql/data
sudo find /opt/bitnami/mysql/data -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
sudo find /opt/bitnami/mysql/data -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;

Bitnami Engineer here,
Every time a user wants to migrate the WordPress content to a new instance, we suggest them use the All in One WordPress Migration plugin. You will simply need to export the data in your current instance
and export it later in the new instance you launch
If you had any other customization in the instance (SSL certificates, redirection, ...), you will need to apply those changes in the new instance as well.
You can learn more about that here.
