I have successfully imaged and deployed windows 7 pro 64 bit. I did nothing different than 32 bit, because FOG doesn’t care about the 32/64 bit part of the OS. Fog does have problems with OEM hidden/recovery partitions, so I either install fresh or use gparted to remove that partition and recover the space.

I do not use FOGPREP or SYSPREP before I image. I do sysprep early on during the image creation process, but only to copyprofile. I then finish installing programs and changing settings, then remove from the domain and upload the image without sysprepping or fogprepping. Most of the time, I don’t even have to chkdsk or defrag.

The one thing I do is use a mutliple partition - single disk image type because that’s how it got it to work and all machines I image have the same size or larger HD as the one I took the image from.

FOG is free and we are all volunteers on the forums, trying to help when and where we can.

Depending on the type or problems you are having will probably determine what you want to backup and what you want to discard.

You can export most of the host, images defs, group, and other information from the database. You can backup your /images directory to another location, and you can copy your .fogsettings file so you know what you chose during the install.

look at the column names and the values for user. Make sure you are specifying the correct column name and value for uName.

If worse comes to worse, use something like phpmyadmin or NaviCat lite to edit the values using a GUI.

open your dhcpd.conf file and make sure you updated the “next-server” line with the new IP of the FOG server.

there is a WIKI article explaining how to do what you need. There are also many threads explaining how to do this command by command. Use the search feature and you’ll probably find it quickly.

I have experienced the same problem, besides, a username and a password didn’t appear when finishing the Storage Node installation.
What I did to get it working is to change the password in the Storage Node at the /opt/fog/.fogsettings as well as in the main FOG server at the WebUI -> Storage Management -> All Storage Nodes -> “Your-Storage-Node” -> Management Password, so that both match the local user’s password. I can’t say if it is the Storage Node’s or the main FOG server’s local user, as I have the same password in both machines.
I think it is the same solution as wpsd’s, but instead of changing the local user’s password to match the one at .fogsettings I have changed it in .fogsettings to match the local user’s password.

I’ve seen reboot=bios solve some cases of machines failing to reboot after completing the image task, but I’ve had better luck with reboot=pci.

I tried again using multi-partition, all disks and it worked. Unfortunately, I need to fit this on a couple of machines with smaller disks. Too bad I didn’t build the image on one of those machines. Is there anything I can do?

Overall I would prefer to be able to use resizable mode. Any thoughts on why that didn’t work?

I figured it out. went into fog setting through the web management and changed the TFTP password from there and everything started working fine.

NOTE: I HAVE fixed the issue myself. Turns out I forgot to set the fog server as a dhcp server as well! oops…

Make sure the account you are using to join computers has been delegated rights to add and remove computer accounts to the domain. A default user can only add so many before being denied and cannot remove or modify any computer accounts.

Read the proxyDHCP article on the wiki. If you still have questions, I’ll be glad to answer them.

Well, I went ahead and moved my server to another machine. Reinstalled with ubuntu 12.04, started clean and it looks like everything’s working again.

Unfortunately I couldn’t find the root of the problem but it appears I’m back up and running.

Didn’t encrypt my password finally got that figured out. Nevermind.

Alright, I finally managed to get it working using just fogprep and mutli-partition non-resizable. I suppose that will have to do.

I don’t have real world experience to know if this works, but you can try defining the images you want stored on the hd2500 disk by changing the path in the image definition. Setup a new image definition, set the location to be “hd2500/ImageName” leaving the /images/ prefix. I think FOG should try to store the image in the /images/hd2500/ImageName file or folder, depending on image type.
