Hi Junkhacker,

Thanks for your help !

thanks i got it, change the FOG Service start from automatic to automatic delayed…
thats it…

no need to bloat your image with drivers

model way (just look at driver stuff):
[url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/utilizing-postscripts-rename-joindomain-drivers-snapins.12175/[/url]

or Hardware ID way (also has a wiki page posted):
[url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/automatic-hardware-detection-driver-installs-in-fog.11933/[/url]

Images are literally stored in the root directory “/images” go into your terminal and type:
[CODE]cd /
ls
cd /images
ls[/CODE]
This is the DEFAULT location for your images. It is possible that in your storage management you have changed the location but you would already know that.

Connect to your Fog server via FTP through your Windows machine and download the images. I would suggest WinSCP program. Uses a more friendly interface. [url]http://winscp.net/eng/index.php[/url]

There is no direct “reboot” task. Just when there is a task when the client is installed and the firewall is configured correctly, the client will check for a task. If a task is found it should reboot.

In about a month’s time or so this whole conversation will be moot for me as I’ll be replacing the images with updated recipes captured via PartClone.

If there is a bug and a solution I’m trying to find it not for my sake. I’ve already instructed our techs to use QuickImage and unicast in the meantime.

If the PartImage-captured PartImage-deployed image has a sector problem when multicast, then would it not also be corrupt when it is unicast?

Aggressively zero’ing the drives prior to PartImage Multicast results in the same.

Interestingly, interrupting a PartImage-multicast session will corrupt the drive similarly to the point where FOG will refuse to work with that drive until it is re-zero’d.

I haven’t run the installer yet, I wanted to be sure I could set it up the way I want it first. Should I be able to do it with the 1.2.0 installer version as well? Also do I need to drop the database before I run the installer?

I have uploaded our master image into the new server. I’m planning on just doing an .sql dump of the fog hosts table and importing into the fog hosts table on the new server. That way I bring all the old host information into the new server. I have 1 image and 1 host already, but we have that one master image for most of our machines. We have a few more images on the old fog server I need to bring over, and was just worried about transferring them. Thanks again for your suggestions!

when it’s done. at this point, i would say the release date will be “soon”
we can’t really schedule a release date, because many of us can’t really schedule time to work on fog. we work on fog in our spare time, for free.

I would first find out exactly where the problem starts occurring. I have many vlans but not subnets. We have no problems across vlans getting fog to operate. It’s just a guess that it may not even be the way your infrastructure is setup but rather too many hops to get to the fog server. This is just a guess.

Thanks again!

However I noticed there’s = replacing the last character of every base64 encoded product key in Fog database (which I had inserted manually via web interface thus far).
When writing the script to encode all the keys I have, I got a similar result with two ==s appended in the end, but because the file was created in windows. Replacing Windows newlines with Unix’s by dos2unix gave a clean result, of course.
Now I’m just wondering if this is a oversight in the php portion and I should replace the last character of they keys with it as when writing all the keys straight to the Fog database, or is there something going on beyond the initial php input form on web interface that would change data already in the database even if I’d append cleanly encoded keys?

Couldn’t find anything relevant in the files, I’m not too php/java savvy.

Thanks for your time, yet once again…

i hate to interrupt the Final Fantasy argument, but i think this thread is getting rediculously off track

My Fog server is now running with a local image storage ! :/[/quote]

hi tom:

I’ve updated the svn to 2903, it had in 2894.

I understand that your recommendation is to add a fog hosts trought pxe. If there is no other solution will be what I will do.

My idea is this:

On a computer with fog service if the detected mac not found in the database, which makes equipment inventory and automatically add it to fog.

I am studying the MOD_HostRegistrer.cs file for editing and allow to add this information.

I do not know if what I have thought it can be done, or perhaps is already done and I can not make it work.

Thanks for all 🙂

Next year, I will build this into my image as a fail safe. I learned my lesson this year. And next year I will be active directory, it will me much easier for me to deploy applications across the board, not to mention that Chrome has ADM modules.

Thanks for the information though. I will read up on it and figure out a plan of action for next year.

For now the Registry method will get me through. At least until next year when I have my Active Directory in place, I already have ADM for chrome set up for my students, but our active directory is not ready for deployment yet. 😞

[quote]User policies, on the other hand, will affect users in your domain whenever they sign in to a Chrome device, even if the device isn’t enrolled to your account. You can set user and device policies for each of your organizational units, and each unit can contain devices and users from different domains within your account.[/quote]

This has my attention though 🙂

It still leads me to believe the user has to log in in order to receive the benefits. I am installing chrome with the intent that my students won’t log in even though they have accounts. So I have to cover all bases. Still gives me something to think about.

At least I got my gun all cleaned up for firing into barrels of fish tomorrow 😄

I know tab limiting isn’t that big of a deal, but I have to lock down the number of tabs or the students get off track. I think the staff need to do a better job of administering the students, IMHO, but I can’t fix that, I can however try to keep them on task.

Having the same problem. Images upload and download nicely, just no luck with getting hosts to reboot with instant image task scheduled. Reboot service is enabled everywhere and client installed. WoL is not working either, even though it’s enabled in bios and Windows drivers.

Just added that to the wiki sorry for not having that specified.
