Install the FOG Server with the DHCP option while online, then take it offline and it should work for you.

@davidjor I think things are being a bit mixed up here. Let’s step back and take the whole picture. In your initial post you said you wanted a FOG standalone setup and you thing dnsmasq could cause the issue. Let me ask, why do you use dnsmasq at all. What is providing DHCP in this scenario? Looks like an external server is doing this. What is it? Why can’t you add PXE boot options to that DHCP server?

If you can’t modify that DHCP server then dnsmasq is the right way to go. But as it can be a little tricky I first wanted to check if we really need to go that way.

Looking at the config you initially posted I see a line pxe-service=X86PC, "Boot from network", pxelinux which could be causing that we see pxelinux in the pcap file. Please make sure you only use Georges config (not a combined one) and put in your IP addresses where needed.

@sebastian-roth Can you confirm where in version Running Version 1.5.0-RC-10
SVN Revision: 6080 This might be? @Tom-Elliott

Got it, this is the syntax from Powershell

$HostJson = @{
“name”= $vmname
“description”= $Description
“macs” = @($MacAddress)
“imageID”= $Image.id
“imagename” = $ImageName
}
$CreateHostJson = ConvertTo-Json($HostJson)
$createHostURL = $baseUri +“/host/create”
$createHostResult = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $createHostURL -Method POST -body $CreateHostJson -Headers $headers -ContentType “application/json”

@sebastian-roth

Hello,

that works 🙂
But i had to put the iso in /var/www/html/iso/
And then i had to know the name of the iso file. (No directory listing)

Thank you very much.

RESOLVED !

@Scott-B So things are fixed for you now, I understand?

Yes good to go! Now to perform the migration on the production server.

@sebastian-roth and @Wayne-Workman, solved! I just had to update storage management password for DefaultMember. After that, I got successfully uploaded captured image. Thanks!

@scott-b Yes i’me sure (“control userpasswords2” tells me it). I’m using the local admin acount.

@wayne-workman Hey Wayne, thanks for your help. You can close this. We are migrating to a new image anyways and I don’t have a ton that are deployed out, so I’m just going to start from scratch. Thank you very much. : )

@benc Good to hear that you could make it work. I still suggest you should read up more about UEFI and think about moving all your systems that direction.

@gabbas Ok, thanks for letting us know. I talked to the fog-client main developer about this and we both were kind of puzzled by this. I’ll mark this solved then. Please open a new thread and post fresh new logs if you have an issue again.

I think the hostname policy of our company is the problem. We use year numbers and consecutive numbering as names for the hosts. And exactly in the query with one of the consecutive numbers results in several results of the query. Just there.
If I enter the entire name, it will only display that one host.
The case can be marked as solved.
Thank you for your cooperation.

@jjsplitter said in PXE / TFTP booting is slow:

I find it hard to believe that it is a network issue. Even after I know a computer is imaging slowly, I can start another one simultaneously and it will be imaging at a normal speed.

The issue is probably not the network itself but a combination of network driver on the client and your setup. The only way we can figure this out is by looking at the network packets. You’d first have to figure out which network interface is used in the FOG server (sudo ip addr show).

On the other hand it might be a very hard thing to nail down and fix anyway. So I do understand if you don’t want to spend more time on this. I’ll mark this thread solved for now. Feel free to open a new one and post a reference here if you want to keep debugging this.

@andreiv I moved your last post to here since it’s a separate issue that you found: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11157/checking-schedule-shutdown-after-task-completion-causes-the-running-task-to-hang/2 Please follow it there.

@wanderson We’ve lost track of this issue, sorry. Have you looked into MySQL max_connection limit yet? See here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_MySQL#Increase_maximum_simultaneous_MySQL_connections

@caw001 @rboan ???

@Seydoo Is this still an issue? Do you use proxy authentication?

Marked this solved as the initial issue can be circumnavigated and we have a github issue open on that topic.

@fry_p Any news on this? From your point of view, is there anything we can do right now?

@CoxM Did you solve the issue together with the help of @george1421 ?
