How to recover deleted image
-
So I had deleted an image from FOG dashboard. But the storage usage on home page shows that the data must be there (in /images)
How can I put it back in my FOG server?
(My supervisor is going to KILL ME )

@jackiejack What’s the difference with no. 4? Is that a newly created one?
Assuming yes: my guess is that your original image was compressed much in the way that your BasicImage is, setting the Image Manager to the right value will hopefully restore functionality for that image definition.
-
Just recreate the definition giving the same path as the original image. It would make more sense to also find out what machines had that image assigned and reassign them with the new image definition.
-
Deploying didn’t go through. Partclone couldn’t find directory. Does not exist.
-
@jackiejack I’m not sure I understand. Did you actually delete the file information?
-
@tom-elliott No well I went into FOG dashboard and deleted the image in the “usual” way.
-
@jackiejack But the image doesn’t exist in /images correct?
-
@tom-elliott Tom, it does exist. I mean 59 GB for my MasterImage
Only 2 images I captured. Basic and Master
-
@jackiejack So the definition you created, the path is pointing at:
MasterImage? -
-
@jackiejack And the host you’re trying to deploy has the newly created definition assigned?
-
@tom-elliott Yes.
-
@jackiejack Do you have multiple storage nodes? If so, do the other nodes have the image available as well?
-
@tom-elliott no
-
Can you give an image of the deploy process including the error?
-
@tom-elliott standby
-
-
@JackieJack Just before that screen there usually is a blue partclone screen. Does that show an error? We need to know the error message partclone is giving you. Take a picture of that or even try taking a steady video. Put your smartphone on a pile of books in front of the screen to get a good non-blury video.

@sebastian-roth Will do first thing tomorrow.
A tall lad myself. Was so in a rush before lab closed Friday that I didn’t even think to sit down. -
