    OK so I added new storage called images2, followed the documentation:
    https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Adding_Storage_to_a_FOG_Server

    Captured an image perfectly.

    Trying to deploy an image and getting the error:
    Mounting File System: Error
    Could not mount images folder (/bin/fog.download)
    Reason: mount: mounting 192.168.177.101:/images2/ on /images failed: permission denied.

    • Checked permissions and have fogproject root access.

      @sourceminer I didn’t look at the wiki so I’m guessing here (well kind of).

      From the command prompt of the fog server. If you run the command showmount -e 127.0.0.1 does it show both /images and /images2 exported? If no then you need to edit the /etc/exportfs file. Once the file has been updated then you want to run the command exportfs -a to reshare the shares. Check with the showmount command.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        Boom that was it… Interesting I thought I did this already, I thought It was in the documentation but doesn’t seem like it was.

          I spoke too soon still complaining about Unable to locate image store /bin/fog.download.
          From what I see all the other parameters are correct.

          exports file:
          /images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
          /images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
          /images2 *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
          /images2/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)

            @sourceminer What does showmount command tell you?

              root@FogServer:/bin# sudo showmount -e 127.0.0.1
              Export list for 127.0.0.1:
              /images2/dev *
              /images2 *
              /images/dev *
              /images *

                @sourceminer OK that’s great. The shares are published.

                The next thing is to compare the permissions on /images and /images2

                ls -la /images
                ls -la /images2

                Also there are hidden check files in the /images and /images/dev directories. You can view them with:
                ls -la /images/*
                ls -la /images/dev/*
                ls -la /images2/*
                ls -la /images2/dev/*

                They should be called .mntcheck (yes with the preceding dot, that makes them hidden.

                If you want to recreate them (if they don’t exist) use
                touch /images2/.mntcheck

                Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                    Im wondering if its not anything to do with FOG?
                    It gets to the preparing Partition layout and then prompts:


                    **An error has occurred.


                    Init version xxx
                    Unable to locate image store (/bin/fog.download)
                    Args passed:

                    Kernel variables and settings:

                    No errors seem to be in the parameters.
                    The parameters all seem good

                      @sourceminer Not exactly sure but maybe the duplicated fsid=X parameter in your /etc/exports is causing the issue.

                      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                      Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

                          I totally overlooked that. Great catch because the file systems seem to be setup correctly from a file permissions standpoint.

                              You get the same error on capture or capture and deploy?

                              If you look into /images2/dev do you see a directory with a mac formatted name? If you look at /images/dev do you see this directory? You should only see a mac address looking directory when you are doing an active upload to the fog server. Any other times that is an indication of a botched upload.

                              You are still getting a permission denied message?

                                I captured the image no problem.
                                Im getting the error on deploying the image.
                                Neither directory has a formatted Mac name
                                I don’t see anything saying permission denied… just the same message above “Unable to locate image store (/bin/fog.download)”

                                  OK sorry, I just noted that the capture never completed… its starting over again.
                                  Going to watch to see what happens.

                                    OK Confirmed its all working as expected. The Ultimate solution was the duplicate fsid=x issue.
                                    Perhaps flag the wiki document on installing additional storage pools to ensure that the fsid=x value is not duplicated from a copy and paste.

                                      @sourceminer Interesting I think the wiki pages needs to be updated to based on my tutorial here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10450/adding-additional-image-storage-space-to-fog-server/2

                                      I specifically do mention changing the fsid.

                                      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                                        Yes your Tutorial is spot on.

                                        One thing I have observed though, is if you reinstall Fog (I did this morning troubleshooting the Secure boot post) I noted that the exports file is replaced with default. I lost all my settings from prior. I had to append the file.

                                          @sourceminer said in After Adding Storage for Images / deploy image mounting failed:

                                          I lost all my settings from prior. I had to append the file.

                                          Yes I saw this too when I was developing NFSv4 for FOG. That uses a really different exports file. So now I keep a exportfs.sav file with the correct settings in case I forget in the future.
