Basic Image Capture Stuck in Loop

Here is a screenshot of my Hyper V

@george1421 Would you have an idea why it’s that slow?? You have more experience with HyperV than I have!

@bnorwood I remember we had a performance issue some time ago but this was fixed. As I see you are running version 1.5.5 I don’t think this is the same problem. Here are the details just for reference: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6695/performance-decrease-using-hyper-v-win10-clients and maybe https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6966/uploading-an-image-from-hyper-v-is-extremely-slow

Here are some screen shots at the end of the capture and errors.

Sorry I have zero experience with hyper-V. We are a vSphere shop.

But I remember something like this in the forums from a while ago. I think it had something to do with the disk controller that was used, but it is a vague memory.

I would also ask what version of FOS Linux is installed. From quick search of the forum it looks like a rsched issue was resolved in 4.19.6 and later.

@Sebastian-Roth From what I am reading it is an issue with the virtual switch manager using the Legacy Network Adapter only running at 100MB. That would account for the long capture time. The forum link didn’t address if there is a fix for this. I am using the Legacy Network Adapter as per the setup instructions. I have “real” NICs available but not sure how to use them instead of the Virtual Switch Manager. Thoughts?

I also reset all the username and passwords to match after seeing the error code. I think the storage one may have been bad.

We try to tell people to not mess with the FOG service account (called fog up to 1.5.5 and fogproject since 1.5.6). If you change the password of that account you run into trouble. Make sure you read and understand this: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_FTP

Probably best if you open a new topic for the HyperV performance issue so we keep things sorted and other users will find the answers to their questions more easily.

@Sebastian-Roth The password error solved the capture issue. I have successfully captured the image. Thanks for the help! I will start another thread on the Hyper-V slowness issue.
