Plugin Hooks Not Running at Sub-Site
-
Hello everyone,
I have an interesting issue I am facing. I am testing having a storage node at another physical site. The connection seems fine as it can reach the FOG server but one thing I am facing is I am heavily reliant on the Subnet Groups plugin, specifically for identifying what IP a client is upon booting into FOG and assigning to the associated group.
What I am finding is that when a client boots at the sub-site it will get the boot files from the storage node and get into the ‘DEVICE IS REGISTERED’ screen but the plugin hook never fires thus thwarting my desired process.
My desired process is when computers are setup in a lab: Booted > Check-in with FOG > Subnet Group assigns computers to proper group > boot loop until all devices are in group > assign an image and task > machines are images. I have this working at the main site.
Is my best option to have a separate full FOG setup at each site?
Appreciate anyone’s input!
FOG version: 1.5.10.1733
Server OS: Ubuntu 24.04 -
To follow up on this I am looking for any community input on the following:
If anyone has a multi-site setup where they are reliant on the Subnet Group plugin did you:
- Edit the init.xz file to check in with the master server, if so, I’m curious how
- Setup each site node as a normal server with your full configuration
- Another option that I have not thought of
Anyone’s input would be greatly appreciated.
