Today after seeing the update notification in WHM I performed the usual graceful reboot (after clicking the notification etc.), and I noticed the server wouldn't come back online. I couldn't SSH or connect in any way. Since I host WHM on Google Cloud, I could check the serial console output on the instance, and I noticed the following Error showing up repeatedly:

error: not a correct XFS inode

I have tried to open a cPanel support ticket yet my login credentials are not accepted and have not received an email to reset my password.

What do I do?

That error is not an issue specific to cPanel & WHM. It indicates that there is an issue with your filesystem. I'd suggest contacting your provider for assistance.
