The Database Server VM was up and running and i could access it via ssh via my MacBook, from the NDB Server and the NDB Agent. The database was running and the NDB process perform_work was running on the DB Server VM. After comparing file content on the DB Server VM with another Oracle DB managed by NDB i found that the era_base.loc file was missing in the /home/oracle directory.
I recreated the file with, with one line of content “/opt/era_base” and now everything is back to Normal
