How to recover deleted image

[JackieJack]

@quazz Yess image number 4 is a newly created on pointing to the /images/MasterImage folder. What happened was that I thought the image FOLDER name was MasterImage1803. But when I checked I see only MasterImage.

HOLY CRAP I CHANGED THE COMPRESSION THING AND THE IMAGING SEEMS TO BE GOING THROUGH!

Will let you know once target boots up.
(I did deploy that image on a machine once so I know it took)

@jackiejack Imaging went through perfect. THANK YOU QUAZZ.

To recover deleted image:

1. ls /images to find image name (du -h to find size of folders). Take note of the image folder name.
2. Recreate image definition. Make sure it is pointing to the right folder name (must be same path as the original one)
3. IF DEPLOYMENT PROBLEMS: Set compression of this image def to right value. Check your previous image before the deleted one. In my case my I put my new image definition to this previous value.*
4. Make sense to reassign this image to the original computers associated with this image (in my case it was only the master computer I was working on).
5. Think twice before deleting images!

*(Apparently when new image definition is created FOG may assign a different compression???)

Thanks to FOG devs for considering idiots like me!

@jackiejack What manager and compression setting did you need to set it to?

[JackieJack]

@tom-elliott Image Manager Partclone Gzip

I was confused about what to choose. Because as you can see in the screen shot that the compression for basic image is Partclone Compressed. So I just went into that image definition and saw the Gzip.
