What do you have FOG running on?

[joshua]

My Fog-Machine is running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell Poweredge 1650 4GB RAM. (also have VM image in case this physical server dies.)
The storage node is an Iomega 14TB StorCenter px6-300d.

It works quite well for our environment, where we only need images 1-2 times a year because nothing really changes as far as configuration. (We image everything from workstations to AGFA printers the size of a VW bus.)

My FOG server is running on virtualized Ubuntu 12.04, ESXi on a Dell PowerEdge M610. Works great – the only bottlenecks I ever run into is related to our limited network bandwidth, not FOG resource usage.

Great still working on some problems but for the most part it is great

Thank you guys

I have my FOG system in two parts, i.e. DHCP and FOG on two separate machines.

The Fog Server is on a 8-port GBit switch (port 1 going back to a 10/100 “router” i.e. like the one you’d have at home) leaving me with 6 spare ports, on a workbench for when I do imaging. The FOG Server itself is:

fog 0.32, Ubuntu 11.10
Gateway DX4200-09
AMD Phenom 9150e Quad-Core (1.80Ghz per core, I think)
4GB RAM
1x 640GB 7200pm HDD

Essentially, I found the best PC just laying around doing nothing. And it’s doing it’s job fine.

The DHCP Server also doubles as a Fileserver for random files around the office, ISO’s, etc… It’s currently got a 10/100 Ethernet port running Linux Mint 10, on a different switch (also a GBit, with a link back to the same router). Just for kicks, here are it’s stats:

Mint Linux 10 “Julia”
IBM ThinkCentre
Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.66Ghz
1GB RAM
1x 250GB HDD

Again, made from parts around the office.

Have you guys tried to do an off network fog server? Like self contained on a laptop, that you could just drag into a room with a switch and image pc’s? Also, does anyone have any advice on a setup behind a small home router managing DHCP and not Fog? Thx

Yes I have had a portable FOG install on a laptop before. It worked really well.

I use Virtual Machines… I have pfsense controlling DHCP and FOG on Ubuntu within ESXi
