Hi Tom,
finally it seems solved. But I have had to make another action to make snap-ins work. You know that there is a change in snap-in file selection; i chose it from a select list an then click on “update” to make it efective, and then you see the file in the “sap file max size” box. But after migration to 1.0.1, in that box there is the whole path of file and that makes snap-in file download fails. It is necessary to click the “update” button i all of your snap-ins to make it work fine.

I think that is so much important to advise users who are going to migrate. So my advise for them regarding to snap-ins will be:
[LIST]
[]double-check that your snap-in task tables are empty, specially if you see after migration snap-in tasks in fog console which should not be there
[]apply update on all of your snap-ins
[/LIST]
Thank you very much for your hep Tom.
I hope not to bother you more (at least in short ;))

It seems that a “Dell PowrConnet” has Spanning Tree Proticol (STP) enabled by default.
~[url]http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-switches/f/866/p/17031843/17154977.aspx[/url]

If you disable this feature on this switch it may allow PXE to route through.

To quote Tom another thread…
[QUOTE]2) Check all networking switches that can be managed have portfast enabled (cisco) and/or *STP Spanning Tree Protocol) are disabled on the switch. The and/or meaning with Cisco, portfast should be all that’s needed, but turn off Spanning Tree Protocol if you can just to ensure this is NOT a factor in blocking the DHCP from iPXE.

It is:
[code]
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk /opt/fog_latest
cd /opt/fog_latest/bin
./installfog.sh
[/code]

will it work if you try an Image Type of RAW?

Thanks a lot Tom, that solved the issues. Great!.
Excuse me if it was so obvious to ask it here.
Now it’s time to test this brand new fog version.

Best regards.

delete the files in /management/reports
that should make most of them work

[QUOTE]Go to FOG Configuration Page->FOG Settings->Proxy Settings enable bogus proxy ip information. It should auto fail and make loading the pages much quicker.[/QUOTE]

FOG_PROXY_IP > was empty i put my server ip adress but i solve this and other problem appear:
At Home page > Dashboard at Disk Information is an error (Failed to connect to … ) can i do smth to apear disk info again?

But some questions: Only me and two ppl more have this problem? I was searching on the forum and only two threads about this problem and no solution.
You can’t make something when you install fog 1.X.X to work good like 0.32 with the same or better configuration?
Because that delay it’s verry frustrating.

[quote=“Jaymes Driver, post: 27721, member: 3582”]I don’t think this is currently possible, you can submit a feature request and we can see if we can work something out. However, in the past forum members have been successful at coming up with their own fix or add in that we have later incorporated. So please don’t be afraid to try![/quote]

Unfortunately with work at present i will not have the time to contribute. I will however make a feature request. Thank you for your assistance.

That should work, but definitely read the wiki article on how to upgrade.

If you’re wanting a newer OS that still runs smoothly and lacks bloat then I’ll toss in another shout out to using Debian 7.5 . But yes, with any system its best to get major OS work out of the way before trying to set up software that you want to be stable. Dependencies change, folder locations change, kernels change… it can be a mess for software to go through OS upgrades.

Fedora and CentOS are supported.

Ubuntu has just been making some changes and that is why you see all the chatter about Ubuntu lately.

I would NOT update to 14.04. I, personally, wouldn’t upgrade form 10.04 ever, I still have servers running 10.04 and I have NO ubuntu issues at all! Fog works wonderfully on a GOOD base OS. 12.04 would not be a bad upgrade, and 13.10 would be safe too.

Personally I would back up my databases and move my fog folders and install 1.0.1 on the 10.04 machine.

If you would like to upgrade your Ubuntu I would upgrade to 13.04 or 13.10.

It would be recommended to upgrade to OS BEFORE installing FOG though.

I agree with both of them. If you plan to use fog for DHCP you should take your FOG server out of the network and run a private network for imaging. And in which case you should stop the service with a command should you wish to introduce the machine to the network once more.

the hosts that are looking for the old IP will not communicate with the server while it’s running unless you reconfigure the hosts to look for the new name or IP. assuming you set up your dhcp server correctly for the new IP of the server, network boot operations should be unaffected. you could probably make a snapin to deploy to all hosts before changing the server that updates the config files on the hosts for the new server.

[quote=“Juan Antonio, post: 27635, member: 23837”]Good night from Madrid
I’m going to change the PC of fog for a newer computer.:)
Can I move images OS from the old server to the new server?😕

How can I do?o_O[/quote]

Easiest method to Copy the old images to the new server is to:
[code]scp -r /images <NEWFOGSERVERIP>:/images[/code]

Then on the New server as root run:
[code]touch /images/{.mntcheck,dev/.mntcheck}
chmod -R 777 /images
chown -R root:root /images[/code]

Then you have to recreate the associations for the images in FOG which I leave completely up to you.

Thanks for the info, using that I found this and updated php on the Fedora 10 box that was getting the white screen.
I then ran the installer script, which finished correctly now and then I was able to update the fog DB just fine.

thanks for the help Tom

I missed the Banner in my haste. The Password was being delivered from the Storage Node. I didn’t think to look there. Makes sense on a large scale operation. Thank you for the help Junkhacker. By the way your avatar looks so angry. Makes me read all your responses like your angry and grumbling or scolding people… brilliant.

Well… This is Fog 1.0.1 We haven’t had time to write new wiki articles regarding adding items to the iPXE system. But this guide will not work for you. We no longer serve from the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default file, so these settings will not work for you.

We also upgraded the system from pxe to ipxe, thus the commands listed on this wiki will not work for you.

Instead, please take a look here -> [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-0-33b-edit-pxe-menu.10403[/url]

This will assist you in creating a custom menu on the new ipxe system.

As far as changing your graphics, I will assume you mean the back ground image? If that is the case, everything is served from your /var/www/fog/service/ipxe you will want to edit the background.png image there.

please note if you are on ubuntu 14+ you need to look in /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe

Tom,

Thanks for your explanation. I thought the randomized TFTP password was a fogcrypt hash. I ended up doing a new install anyway. I’d done lots of learning and experimenting on the last install, so thought it was a good idea to reinstall before we rolled this out.

I can’t thank you guys enough for the work you’re doing. I’ll be making a donation, and I’m not a developer (not much of one anyway), but I’d be glad to help in any way I can.

Great group of people here 🙂

Thank you and till next question 🙂
