@Wayne-Workman Thank you so much!

@Wayne-Workman
Thank you Wayne and Tom for your replies.
I guess i didnt understand the idea of snapins, anyway, now I do.
Eventually, I solved the problem with creating a new path to the sanpins.

Regardless of this problem, I have another one now.
I just noticed that since updating to 1.3.0-RC-10, I cant capture any machine.
The progress is stuck on the client, like this:
0_1474521399902_fog-stuck-on-mountingfilesystem.JPG

im trying to capture an image i already captured, just for testing, I left it all night and it didnt continued…
Im sure about the settings i set for the new image, since its the same as the image settings that already deployed to the machine.

Should I post a new topic about this or wait here for help?

The switch did not support any faster methods of STP, or they did not work. Disabling STP altogether is a calculated risk that we took, and it has fixed the problem.

This issue is solved.

@Quazz

Permissions solved the issue. Fog had access to the folder, but when I pasted this new image in it, it needed the permissions for it.

Thanks for the help!

Problem seems to be resolved.
I deleted the storage node that was showing up in apache error log. Not sure why FOG reverted to a storage node that was not listed as master, but it did.
After deleting, I have uploaded an image.
Words of wisdom from an idiot…When SVN up-ing, Make sure that you don’t delete your images, evidently there is a setting to delete images and I missed it. It is a bad thing to delete them. Worse than that…I did not have a backup of the images.
Happy Fogging.

@Wayne-Workman @Quazz Thanks for your support you guys are great to have around.

@Wayne-Workman
No problem with Fog, just old machine with unstable WOL.

@Tom-Elliott the backup was my fault. To gain access to the internet I have to swap cables. When I did the “real” dhcp server gave that server a different ip. The database had the old info.

Appears to be working, will let you know once the image is uploaded if it still boots 🙂

@Wayne-Workman I was able to get it rolled back. It is looking like the snapins are back now. thanks for the help

@adukes40 Ok. That means your DB connection from nodes to main is good. I think it’s just a bug on the version you’re on, you’ll have to wait for tom to look at it - sorry.

@Joe-Schmitt said in Is there a way to query or poll computers with FOG client on them?:

@maveriick you could use GPO to push out a script that re-installs the client.

This is the best option for you. You can find command line arguments that the new client accepts in the article that Joe linked below. You’d use msiexec to first uninstall the client, and then use it again to install it again - using the command line arguments to specify options like server address. This needs done in a startup script most likely - and you should check for the existence of some file if you don’t want computers doing it every time they startup. Just echo “hello” to some file called C:\fogReinstalled.txt or something, and then put your MSIEXEC statements inside of an if statement that checks for this file. The echo to the previously mentioned file would also be in the if statement. Play around with this, get it working manually first, then move to GPO startup script.

@Wayne-Workman Thank you so much for the information Wayne. That really is extremely helpful info. I’ll have to look for that global setting in the fog settings. Thanks again!

@Tom-Elliott

Snapins are not replicated to the nodes.

I used the lftp command from the fogsnapinreport.log but removed some inverted comma and backslash in some parts. After adding password and IP-Address manually the files uploaded to the nodes.

original from fogsnapingreport.log:

lftp -e 'set ftp:list-options -a;set net:max-retries 10;set net:timeout 30; ' ' mirror -c '-R -i [FILENAME]' --ignore-time -vvv --exclude 'dev/' --exclude 'ssl/' --exclude 'CA/' --delete-first ''\''/opt/fog/snapins'\''' '/opt/fog/snapins'; exit' -u 'fog',[Protected] '[IP_ADDR]'

modified ftp command:

lftp -e 'set ftp:list-options -a;set net:max-retries 10;set net:timeout 30; ' ' mirror -c -R -i [FILENAME] --ignore-time -vvv --exclude 'dev/' --exclude 'ssl/' --exclude 'CA/' --delete-first '/opt/fog/snapins' '/opt/fog/snapins'; exit' -u 'fog', [PASSWORD] '[IP_ADDR]'

The restarted FOGSnapinReplicator showed a new logfile where all snapins match:

@sbenson No you don’t, disk expand automatically

Yep, everything is ok.

Thank you !

@wcheung said in How to update kernel on an isolated network:

So bzImage32 is the 32 bit and 64 = bzImage. Since I was able to clone the image.

Yes that is correct for 1.2.0 trunk or 1.3.0. Its been so long since I used 1.2.0 stable I don’t remember exactly of that is the case.

This has been resolved by Tom.

It was a php version issue he had me run
rm -rf /etc/apache* /etc/php*
apt-get purge ‘libphp’ ‘apache*’ ‘php*’

then reinstall and it worked perfectly.

@Sebastian-Roth My network admin did not set option undionly.kpxe. Issue has been solved.

@Tom-Elliott
@Wayne-Workman

Great to hear! Thank you for the update! Thank you also for the quick replies and hard work. It is enormously appreciated. Will await RC-11 and give it a go.

Thank you again.
