Latest FOG 0.33b

[Tom Elliott]

r1180 released.

Missed a semicolon sorry guys.

[jbsclm]

Just checking out XP single partition resizable on r1178, Original disk size of 30gb, used 9.7gb.
Deploys OK, to both 15Gb and 50Gb partitions, but a minor point, it seems to leave about 1% unallocated at the end of the disc.
e.g. in the case of deploying to 50Gb, creates a 49.5 Gb partition, leaves 510 Mb free.
Is this deliberate, I can see how it might be?

[Tom Elliott]

It was deliberate.

I’m setting the “layPartSize” to 99%.

The reason for this is because:

Some drives like 100% set, others don’t.
Some drives like exact drive size set, others don’t.

Some drives don’t like 100% set AND don’t like exact drive size set, others don’t really care.

However, I haven’t seen any issues with any drives being set to 99%.

Yes you loose a little bit of space, but you can extend it later on.

Is anyone else unable to deploy via multicast? I get to the PartClone screen, and it stops there at “restoring image to device”. It’s the first I’ve attempted multicast in 0.33b, so I’m not sure if it’s just me or if it’s a legit issue. Deploying the same image via unicast works. The image is a Win 7 image, set to single partition. Verified using rev. 1180

[Tom Elliott]

What’s the error logs look like?

[Tom Elliott]

Is FOGMulticastManager service running?

[Tom Elliott]

r1184 released.

More location tweaks. Editing should work. It’s not perfect but I think I’m getting there.

Suggestions and some code tests are welcome to make getting it complete that much faster.

[Tom Elliott]

ArchFan,

I only ask those questions because I’m currently multicasting a job and all worked perfectly.

It doesn’t look like FOGMulticastManager service was running. For some reason, attempting to start, stop, or restart the service using sudo initially failed. Typing /opt/fog/service/FOGMulticastManager/FOGMulticastManager seems to have resolved the issue, and I can now start, stop, and restart the service. Multicast then works as expected

[Lee Rowlett]

multicast doesn’t seem to be working for me, no matter how i queue the task, tried from list all hosts using deploy, tried from group multicast, tried task management and list all group, multicast - it is creating seperate multicast tasks for each host :-S

[Tom Elliott]

Are you talking the tasks themselves, or the udp-sender?

[ArchFan]

To answer the log question, there were no files in /opt/fog/log, and none of the /var/log files showed anything other than something about not defining a timezone. Typing /opt/fog/service/FOGMulticastManager/FOGMulticastManager did give me quite a few PHP Warnings. I don’t know what’s significant

PHP Warning: fopen(): Filename cannot be empty in /opt/fog/service/common/functions.php on line 10
PHP Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone settings. You are required to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone ‘UTC’ for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /opt/fog/service/common/functions.php on line 19

Found the issue Lee was reporting.

r1185 released. Should PROPERLY NOW, fix group/individual taskings for multicast jobs.

Creates new multicast task for individual host multicast deploy.

Creates Group multicast task based on the Group->Host->image being the same.

Hi,
How to update r1170 -> r1185?
Uninstall and reinstall all or simply extract files of new version.
Thanks

i see that LAB-CA is used, but this group is deleted and don’t exist anymore. the group name is “test”.

i think that there is some inconsistences into db, expect --min-receivers 16 and NOT 56 (±*/ errors?)

[fabritrento]

uploading a disk from a pc with 3 partition i get this error:

first partition is ntfs with windows xp
second is eth4 with ubuntu 13.10
third is linux-swap.

1st and 3rd is copyed ok on fog server, but second gives a error, seems that try to copy as ntfs instead as ext4.

this bug is urgent must be fixed

[Tom Elliott]

fabritrento,

What is the error that is given? Are you sure it’s ext4 and not LVM?

Thanks[/quote]

You can do this is multiple ways.

First method, if you downloaded thru svn:

Go into the directory where you placed fog perform the command svn update and reinstall. (It will upgrade, not perform brand new install.)

For example: /home/user/trunk
[code]cd ~/trunk
svn update
cd bin
./install.sh[/code]

My tarball is updated to 1185, just download it and run the installer (again it will upgrade.)
[code]wget --no-check-certificate https://mastacontrola.com/fog_0.33b.tar.bz2
tar -xjf fog_0.33b.tar.bz2
cd fog_0.33b/bin
./install.sh[/code]

That should do it.

[Tom Elliott]

r1186 fixes ping issues if you have FOG_HOST_LOOKUP on.

[joacliba]

I’m on revision 1185. Multipartition restore isn’t working, I tried RAW and it reboots when it starts to image (no error I could see). Anyone with multipartition/raw working?
