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.

It should.

Plug in the USB drive. See where it mounts, usually /media/something. You can cat /etc/mtab to get the device info also, just look for something being mounted to /media/something.

Make a directory for the server image under /images, something like /images/Server1.

Mount the device to the folder you just created: sudo mount /dev/usbhdd1 /images/Server1

See if it works. If so, you can add it to the fstab so it mounts the folder on every boot up. You may also need to use the same usb port each time, but I’m not sure how Linux ID’s the external drive for mounting purposes.

You have to boot from network using PXE. Usually you can press F12, while the machine boots up. Then you see the FOG menu. You might have the timeout set to 3 seconds or so. Log into the FOG webinterface > Other information > PXE boot menu. There you can increase the timeout.

okay will do.

Assuming your server is on the same subnet as the client PC’s.

Change this line in the ltsp.conf file:
[CODE]dhcp-range=192.168.1.10,proxy[/CODE]
to
[CODE]dhcp-range=192.168.101.240,proxy[/CODE]

then restart dnsmasq
[CODE]sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart[/CODE]

Well worked out that i had to change a setting in fog from single partition to multiple. must be the system files

There is not an easy way that i’m aware of. But in the web settings(FOG_WOL_INTERFACE, FOG_UDPCAST_INTERFACE, FOG_NFS_ETH_MONITOR) and in the two config files switch all the eth0’s with eth1’s. And restart the FOGMulticastManager and FOGScheduler.

There may be more you need ot edit for each of the services if they are configured to listen on only one interface.

I havn’t tried this but perhaps editing “/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules” and swapping the eth0 and eth1 for the devices, then rebooting would swap which one is which. This may break other things that are depending on specific interfaces though(other services/uses for the server).
