  My next article will be on load-balancing FOG’s web frontend and database backend… I’ve just not wrote it yet… Don’t wait on me, it might be a while.

  FOG Project with clonezilla

  Why would you want to run both clonezilla and FOG? FOG uses partclone which is the same program clonezilla uses. That said, it’s one thing if you wanted to use a CloneZilla Image on a host. We do have support for that, by simple creating the Image definition and setting the Image Manager to Uncompressed. FOG, however, has many more options readily available and configurable via the GUI. Again, this is not to say you cannot use Clonezilla images with FOG. However, FOG manages hosts, inventory, images, and much more through a simple web gui. Running clonezilla is possible, but still means you have the manual tasks to complete. I guess we need to understand the why of this more so we can try to help you out more.

  @george1421 I used to see the issues with warm boots on older versions. That seems to not be the case in the latest version.

  i successfully ran the update to 1.5.7. Now i think there is an issue with the network interfaces. I set eno1 for management, and eno2 for imaging/dhcp. I was told on here that it should have been the opposite, but it has been working fine. now this morning i wasnt able to get to the webui from the eno1 network, but was able to on eno2. the port on the switch is set to the correct vlan. i unplugged the cable from eno2, then i was able to get online with eno1. could this have happened during the update? UPDATE so i had to re-apply the netplan file after rebooting the server. everything seems fine now. i can access the webui from both connected interfaces.

  Thank you to all for your answers. I think, i will use the safe approach : i will clone my existing Golden Win 7 image in Virtual Box. With the cloned image, i will install Ubuntu with Grub and upload the new “Golden Dualboot Win7/Ubuntu image”. In my ref image, i do … nothing 'cause all conf", softs and scripts are run at the post-deployement … I will try this approach and “i will be back” with the results. Thank you for “the right way” ;)

  I guess I would have to ask you a question of what are you trying to accomplish by not having FOS Linux reboot after its done with imaging? What is your goal here?

  I’m seeing the not registered static text here: /var/www/html/fog/lib/hooks/bootitem.hook.php /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/bootmenu.class.php I would look in the bootitem.hook.php first. as well as in the language files in /var/www/html/fog/management/languages/

  Your dhcp server needs to send the boot file name ipxe.efi for uefi based systems and undionly.kpxe for bios based systems. If this is just a one off system you can manage dhcp option 67 by hand. If you want it to automatically adjust based on the target computer there are instructions here as long as your dhcp server is windows 2012 or newer or linux based: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/BIOS_and_UEFI_Co-Existence#Using_Windows_Server_2012_.28R1_and_later.29_DHCP_Policy

  As we have had so many requests about this topic I have tried to sort this out and properly fix it. Turned out to be quite hard but I hope I got it now without causing any other harm. @Tom-Elliott Can you please take a look at this commit and let me know if something jumps at you that could cause us trouble. I mean I have tested things a bit but as I had to change code right in the FOGController class I am unsure about side effects this might cause. What do you think?

  @TigerTran What Linux OS do you have? My guess is you have Ubuntu, right? Did you read what is mentioned in the official release message? https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/13488/fog-1-5-7-officially-released Please make sure you say NO if asked about removing and re-installing PHP and Apache when upgrading to 1.5.7 on Ubuntu!!! There is an issue within the installer trying to switch to MariaDB that causes a problem on Ubuntu installs otherwise. If you have such an issue see here: https://forums.fogproject.org/post/126476 and https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/13447/lost-database

  @ITCC Let us know what exactly you are trying to achieve. The AD settings are meant to be used for domain join and from what you write I get the impression that you want to misuse “Name Change/AD Join Forced reboot” to forcefully log off people from their machines. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding on my side but you keep calling it “force logout” and therefore I get the impression. There are other ways of doing this. The web is full of it: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-security/how-to-force-logoff-from-command-line/8e7507e0-12c8-4ac7-8d5e-a1917e4af997 (using shutdown /l /f command) https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1c525aa7-5b09-45fb-ad47-56c41f1df2bc/force-user-logoff?forum=win10itprogeneral (using GPOs) If you can’t make it work this way you need to explain to us what exactly you want to do. We won’t change this otherwise! Just as a side node: I have not really looked into what needs to be changed but I can imagine this being a change in the fog-client code as well. There are many other things that needs fixing before we’d get to change that in fog-client. You are more than welcome to dig through the code yourself and implement the change. I am not saying it cannot be done.

  @Wayne-Workman Sorry this has been without attention for a long time! Not only this topic but all the others: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11868/how-to-change-colors-on-bandwidth-graph https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11999/bandwidth-line-colours https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6912/can-i-change-the-colors-of-the-tx-rx-graph I played with the things mentioned in the other topics and figured that it seems to pick colors just by itself if we don’t force it to use our colors. When I remove the color scheme as described I get the following picture: Please vote if you find this appropriate. Sure the more nodes you have the less obvious distinct colors there are. But from it’s still better than using a successive shade of whatever color you start from. I’ve tested this in three different browsers on a Linux machine. I would imagine this working nicely on Windows and Mac OS browsers as well. What do you think @Tom-Elliott?

  Deploy one Linux Mint image to computers of different manufacturers?

  @Sebastian-Roth said in Deploy one Linux Mint image to computers of different manufacturers?: I am not sure if Mint does some fancy things like LVM partitioning, home partition encryption or similar stuff FOG cannot handle. Make sure you choose a simple plain partition layout when installing the master image machine and you should be fine. My daily driver (not in the office) is a Linux Mint system (ubuntu based). It just has standard partitions not lvm. As Sebastian said, you can get near windows like deployments with most linux distros if you want to do it manually through post install scripts or via the FOG client. I can say I’ve never used the fog client as part of a FOG linux deployment. One other comment, I have a how-to on netbooting your favorite distros to where you can live boot linux mint on hardware without installing it first for testing purposes here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images
