Issue
I issued the command journalctl -xe on my VM Centos7 in Google Cloud and I got this error:
google_accounts_daemon[1140]: Full path required for exclude: net[4026532634]
Does anyone have an idea on this?
Solution
Response to the bug report I filed on Google Cloud Platform:
The accounts daemon is activated every ~90 seconds to ensure that expired SSH keys are removed from the guest. At that time, the guest will attempt to create/update/remove users based on the non-expired keys in metadata. If some user isn't getting set up properly (maybe there is a problem adding the user to one of the listed groups?) it might result in something getting called every couple minutes.
Google Cloud Platform Issue #444
I did not take more time to debug the issue, since the only problem is the volume of log messages.
The log messages stopped when I upgraded the instances to CentOS 7.4.
