Start SSH Session Grayed Out

I have a Debian based OS installed on Parallels Desktop for Mac, I installed the Parallel Tools as well but the 'Start SSH Session' is still grayed out for me.
Any workaround for it?

 

I have the same problem when using Oracle Linux as the virtual machine. The workaround mentioned in the following link (suspending and then resuming the VM) works for me. https://forum.parallels.com/threads...p-15-with-ubuntu-18-04-vm.348356/#post-859295

 

Please note that Parallels Tools should also be installed on the virtual machine. Otherwise the above workaround doesn't work.

 

Thanks, this worked. Don't have an idea why this is suddenly required, it was not before. I guess I will suspend this OS for now.
