When deploying on Phala Cloud, you choose between two CVM base images:
  • dstack-<version> (Production): No remote access. Use this for production deployments.
  • dstack-dev-<version> (Development): Allows SSH access for debugging.
Development images are not recommended for production environments.

​
SSH Access

The easiest way to debug your CVM is via SSH using the Phala CLI: 
phala ssh my-cvm
Once connected, you can inspect containers, check logs, and debug networking: 
docker ps -a
docker logs <container-name>
htop
For setup instructions, see Enable SSH Access.
