@Robotic said in Where is the .mbr file?:

As you can see in the screenshot i added that one arg pertaining to nvme latency. That wouldnt affect the image capture process would it?

No, shouldn’t cause this issue.

What jumps at me in the file listing is this:

/images/HP-9480: total 15882304 drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Feb 6 10:11 . drwxrwxrwx 7 fogproject root 4096 Feb 6 09:36 … -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2 Feb 6 09:24 d1.fixed_size_partitions -rw-r–r-- 1 administrator administrator 1048576 Feb 3 08:58 d1.mbr ...

Two things:

The name in the listing is different than in the picture: HP-9480 vs. HP9480 The file is owned by a user called administrator. Seems like someone messed with this image.

No idea why d1.mbr is missing in /images/HP-9470 directory!?!

@astrugatch Ah good one. I see that @Sebastian-Roth has already updated the article. Thank you Sebastian for your speediness and pro-activeness, as always.

@ty900000 Sorry, forgot to update this topic as well. We have added a fix. Please update to the latest dev-branch and it should be all good to go again,

@lkisser Would you post more information?

@stu Any news on this? Did you get to test Linux live distros?

@Corrco Sorry this topic has been kind of lost probably when we had some issues with the forums not long ago.

The only thing I can imagine is the partition cannot be detected and captured as NTFS. In this case FOG uses RAW mode which will result in a much larger image file. This could happen if the drive is encrypted with Bitlocker or some other forms of disk encryption. Though we added a check for Bitlocker a fair while ago and it should print a message and bail out.

Please post your FOG version and let us know if you need further help.

@george1421 said in [dev-branch] multicast: for some hosts DB not updated after restore:

@shruggy How many systems do you typically image at the same time with multicast? How much memory do you have on the fog server?

Usually, it’s 36 systems at once. The setup is similar to @tec618’s: FOG on a VM with 4GB RAM, but both the VM and the hosting server run CentOS 7, and it’s Xen, not KVM. PHP 7.3 from Remi’s repo.

@Kiweegie said in Could not mount images folder (bin/fog.download) ... failed: Operation not supported:

Thoughts welcome

Do you have firewall restrictions in your MPLS or the VPN tunnel?

@scosta You can rearrange partitions. I would use something like macrium reflect to create a clone to an identical disk where I manually arrange the partitions, you can then use that disk for capture in FOG, once that is done, you can deploy it to the original disk and see if everything works.

There’s probably other ways or even faster ways, but messing with partition tables can be scary.

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you

I try git clean -xfd then git pull, it doesn’t work.

Thank you.

Alexandre.

Sorry for bringing this back to life, but I guess this needs a disclosure: i fixed the issue incresing the max connections on my DB and by reducing the time that MySQL keeps the idle connections active. Sorry for not bringing this earlier.

@SBrady Looking at your pcap, you have 3 servers responding to the bootp request from your target computer. It appears the real dhcp server is at the .181 address and the 2 proxyDHCP servers are at .44 and .45. Both of the proxyDHCP servers are overriding what your main dhcp server is telling the target computer for where to get the boot file from.

I can’t tell from the proxyDHCP response what type of computer it is. The response doesn’t look like a Microsoft SCCM or WDS response because it is so short. I would focus on what .44 and .45 are and why they are responding to the bootp request.

Edit: Looking a bit more into the pcap there is also a WDS server responding to the DHCP DISCOVER query at the .217 address. That makes a total of 4 dhcp (and proxy servers responding) overriding what the main dhcp server was sending for dhcp options 66 and 67.

Aaaaand… stupid me.

Duplicate Mac Adress due to an external USB Networking Adapter.

Sorry for bothering you.

@kafluke I also was experiencing this same issue. I had deleted a bunch of data as well before trying to pull the image (ran disc cleanup wizard). I ran the exact commands you did, and it fixed the issue. Thank you and Quazz for this assistance. This forum really helps in every way with this awesome product.

@marted Looking good.

May also want to check to see if the computer object already exists in AD. If the account does exist, the join account also needs the ability to modify that account either by virtue of being the creator/owner or by having the permission to modify computer objects in the target OU.

@Sebastian-Roth Yeah, this isn’t something readily available in the code.

@endia If you’re at least semi familiar with code, you might look into /var/www/fog/lib/fog/bootmenu.class.php

This isn’t currently coded for, but you might even be able to do what you want using a simple (relatively speaking) hook to alter the boot menu system.

There’s a template hook already created that should help get you started. By creating a hook, you aren’t altering the core code within FOG. Hooks are meant as a means to inject custom data specifically around what you’re requesting to happen.

The hook that’s setup is located in /var/www/fog/lib/hooks/bootitem.hook.php

Ultimately what you would do is make your changes and set the active flag to true. (it’s a variable named active)

@babouche said in Client Host not showing after 2nd restart:

It’s only when i manually ping from my server to the client that i can see my firewall deny the ping.

Ping (ICMP protocol) is handled different by a firewall than TCP connections are. Ping being denied might be a hint on other protocols also being restricted but doesn’t give you a definitive answer on that question.

@NateUH Yes it is supposed to auto-start on bootup of your FOG server.

Please run

systemctl is-enabled FOGMulticastManager.service

to see if it’s enabled on bootup. If you get disabled there must have been an issue when running the installer. You might run

systemctl enable FOGMulticastManager.service

or re-run the installer to do this for you.

But if it’s enabled already then you might be running into a startup dependency issue in FOG 1.5.7 which we have fixed lately. Ask here if you need more details on this.
