Multi drive image reversing disks.

After making this change partclone successfully runs and is correctly deploying disk1 to /dev/sda. However after deploying disk1, the process completes without deploying disk2 to /de/nvme0n1. Is there something else I need to edit in order to tell the fog server that there’s another disk? How does fog server know that there are X number of disks in the image?

FOG enumerates drives/disks using the lsblk command when it boots up and should process both drives. Make sure Host Primary Disk is not set for this host.

Renaming the disks does work. I know this because I captured a new, simple image and was able to reverse the order in which the disks are deployed.

But when I try this on my real image, it’s deploying the same image to both physical disks which is weird. At the bottom you can see that /dev/sda and /dev/nvme0n1 have the same partition layout. This tells me that it’s deploying Disk1 to /dev/sda AND /dev/nvme0n1.

Debug deployment - You can see it process /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 but not /dev/nvmen01 - 04

Here are the raw files in the capture:

I don’t think this is the case! It’s just the partition layout that was deployed to /dev/nvme0n1 on an earlier run and it’s still like that because for some reason it only deploys one disk right now.

Please check your image and host settings again. Is the image set to All Disks? Also make sure Host Primary Disk is not set for the host you deploy to.
