    Apparently with 0.2.88 (maybe earlier but before that for us was 0.2.69) they added a “note” feature

    The picture shows the (note:) line now which shows the Storage location and the Image name.

    @JJ-Fullmer Well it wasn’t actually phpipam that was slowing it down.
    I had some ssl logs running for a website running on that server. It was tracking access logs for every access of the ssl cert and site. Which was also adding up to over 400 GB of logs. I changed the apache configuration of the site to log much less. That solved the problem. So again, nothing wrong with zstd. Just wanted to have the right answer in case someone else happens to see a constant 5-8 Mbps transmit and receive on a storage node.

    @JulienF I will still work to add a potential for “securing” the aspects that can be secured.

    As far as your NFS route, you only have a single subnet to worry about. You could create a secondary “subnet” for FOG imaging if you needed, or just restrict NFS to use that single Subnet (making it no longer publicly (globally) accessible).

  • Import Hosts from Active Directory

    @x23piracy unfortunately a standard Active Directory contains usually just: hostname, and sid, along with a few other details such as OS version. FOG 2.0 doesn’t rely on MAC addresses as a primary identifier anymore, but still requires some additional information that’s not stored in AD to perform proper host matching. So long story short; no we will not support AD importing for the foreseeable future due to some technical limitations.

    @george1421 i actually don’t think this is as massive of a rewrite/change as you imagine. Tom put a lot of flexibility in the code. I honestly think this could probably all be done with a plugin.

    i mean, it’s beyond MY skill level. but someone could do it.

    @ITCC this would definitely be a feature request. Power Management takes the approach of “If the user is away, they get logged off, and the machine is shut off”. You may be better off to use either GPO or snapins to achieve this. For example, schedule a CRON snapin that just checks if any users are logged on, otherwise it shutsdown.

    @ablohowiak said in Database Maintenance:

    What tables would be useful to locate old hosts?

    hosts and hostMAC

    I can help with the SQL if you have questions. Whatever you come up with, we can probably add it to our existing list of maintenance commands with a little description for each one:

    I’m not looking for a ‘live’ report of what printers they do have connected

    @Tom-Elliott said in change color of icon "upload":

    if you don’t want user’s to accidentally overwrite an image, why not just set the image to “protected” and/or change the files so they’re immutable?

    This is the proper answer. 1.3.0+ allows you to protect the image from accidental deletion and accidental rewrite.

    In 1.3.0+ the terminology is much more clear. In 1.2.0 and below, it was “upload” & “download”. Myself, all of my co-workers, my cousin, and many people on the forums all found this very confusing. So for 1.3.0 and higher, it was changed to “Capture” & “Deploy” and now we see a whole lot less confusion about it.

    @jc35 I would recommend you upgrade your FOG Server in the near future to take advantage of these features plus the many others that 1.3.0+ has to offer. You might want to look at this article if you don’t want to disturb the old server and want to start fresh: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Migrate_FOG
