I think you can set it up at your office with the IP address it will have at the other network. If you configure DHCP services, make sure you set it up for the other network also. The Fog server will not function at the office, i.e. you can’t really test it by imaging/registering computers, but you can once you get to the new network.

I would probably choose to set it up in the current network, verify it’s working, then move it to the new network by updating the IP address via the wiki article linked in Roberts response. Deploy the server and troubleshoot from there if needed.

I got it. What I did was replace the pxelinux.0 file from version .28 and now my computers boot. I am not sure what I am loosing, but it works for me.

This is what I did (going from memory and a very basic linux user, so you might not want to take these commands word for word):
Install Fog .32
Download and extract the installations files for version .28
sudo su
cp /tftpboot/pxelinux.0 /tftpboot/pxelinux.0.v32
rm /tftpboot/pxelinux.0
cp ~/Downloads/fog_2.8/packages/tftpboot/pxelinux.0 /tftpboot/pxelinux.0

At least you can multicast LOL! When I get a task started for multicast all machines load up fine but then freeze on “Please Wait.” I can deploy machines but only about 10 or so at a time. We started at trying 20 machines but a few of them will come up with errors when trying to image…“NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08.” This is nerve racking…I have done well with building the machine and installing Fog…I have it running stand alone with independent DHCP through a Cisco unmanaged 24-port switch. We are imaging laptops and have about 1000 to go. We are in a bad situation. It would be nice if someone could help me out as well. I am still fairly new to Ubuntu and not totally comfortable with this new education yet…LOL.

Server Specs:
HP Compaq 5100 Small Form Factor
Pentium 4 Duo-Core 3.2GHz
2 GB RAM
Using a PCI Intel PRO/1000 GT low-profile NIC
Running Ubuntu 10.04 with Fog 0.32

I realize this hardware is minimal but right now its the only thing I have to work with. The system monitor shows to barely have any CPU usage or RAM usage. The network activity is steady at about 75%.

When i went in to delete the files in the [B]/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/[/B] they won’t go to the trash, and if you click ‘delete now’, nothing happens. All hosts were deleted, so are they stuck in a limbo? (Not an intentional reference to Inception…)

The logs are on the local PC that was imaged(c:\foglog [or something]), they don’t usally help though (for me). Ensure you’re using the correct syntax for the AD integration. Are you doing it per group?

There is a great section in the user guide about uploading your first image.

Well I’ve tried deploying the image in different HDD modes. Didn’t make any difference. I have attempted yet to upload an image in legacy mode. I will be testing that next.

I apologize for the late reply! That is cool.

Another issue may be disk space. I ran into that only today. Check that you have enough free space on the server to upload a new image to.

I used to freak out too when I saw that - started around Fog 0.30 I think from memory but doesn’t seem to stop anything from working. And when I asked similar question some time ago was told by those more in the know than myself that its not something to worry about. Wish it would get sorted though!

Im having the same problem with Dell 620 while trying to multicast. As a matter of fact i cant Multicast Lenovo PC as well. Im using Fog 0.32 on Ubuntu 10

Hi Sami is the VM running in bridged or NAT mode? Are you trying to access the management interface by DNS name or IP address? Can you ping the hostname or IP?

If anyone cares, Gigabit was a bad CAT6 cable.

I tested the kernel version that the other HP models similar used, and it now works perfectly! I’m a FOG lover!!

Fully working on [FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]2.6.35.3 PS as well. Quick![/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 4220, member: 18”]go to your Fog server web page, login, go to storage management icon, click All Storage Nodes on the left menu. Select the storage node you want to edit, which is probably DefaultMember, adjust the MaxClients value there to however low you want it.[/quote]

Thanks! You saved one of my tech’s stress level!

MulticastManager fires up “udp-sender”

Hello,

There is no /opt/fog/service/common/etc/config.php file, I supposed you meant /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php 🙂

service FOGMulticastManager status does not work, only start|stop|restart, start fail at first, but stop work, then start work, and still no multicast working 😞

I forgot something else in the “What I have already done list” : ip igmp on all my HP switches, and no router between FOG server and any of my clients.

update after some more tests: ps aux | grep udp returns something when I run “gunzip -c “/images/anyimagename” | /usr/local/sbin/udp-sender --min-receivers 2 --portbase 9000 --interface myInterface --half-duplex” manually from command line then connect with debug mode 2 clients, but still nothing when I start a new multicast task from fog management webpage.
