Thanks for all the replies! Good information to have. I guess what I should probably be more concerned about is the fog server serving up the tftp boot file to every client as they reboot. I imagine at the start of the school year a lot of machines will be booting up at the same time, but only time will tell.
[quote=“Jaymes Driver, post: 30645, member: 3582”]I hit 6 GB/min on 0.32… I have never seen anything image faster than that, but it could be my equipment.[/quote]
on this particular computer, it started at 7MB/min (probably caching and not actual transfer speed being represented here) and it never dropped below 6MB/min for the duration of the imaging process.
Hi again Tom,
I’ve updated to 1.1.1 and the behaviour is the same. Launching a mullticast deploy the associated snap-ins are not launched.
By the way, what is the deployment button that appears in host list for? It seems to launch a deploy of one host using multicast, but that doesn’t have much sense.
Regards.
The NFS that works is on a Windows server, and the one I haven’t gotten working yet is on the FOG server. And I do have it in the exports file, but come to think of it I should take another look at the settings it has.
No… so I am not familiar with what a FAI server does. Does it behave like FOG where it will replace its standard menu with a chainload if you give a task for a workstation that is registered to it? Or does it only supply a menu during its PXE boot every time no matter what?
Hi Again I did a complete reinstall both OS 13.10 ubuntu and Fog 1.1.0 still have the time issue . I went in to php5/apache2/php.ini and entered America/New_York ,restarted apache2 ,it’s not fixing the problem . please help.
The FOG Configuration->FOG Settings->FOG_PIGZ_COMP is defaulted to 9 which means maximum compression/slowest upload.
It only functions on the upload process.
If this is where you’re trying to “speedup” the images, I’d recommend adjusting this value.
If you’re trying to “speedup” the download of images, then check your networking. Is there 10/100MB limiting that lab down from a gigabit network?
