Can't get FOG to replicate to storage node
-
Looking back over the posts still trying to understand what is needed. I looked at Lee’s post, troubleshooting connections between the two machines and realized something, there is no Mysql database on the node mysql-server does not install when installing a node.

After an experience I had yesterday, I don’t think a storage node is what I am wanting to use. I was pushing out an image to a machine and noticed that it was connecting to my storage node to try to pull the image (it errored out because the image still has not replicated.)
The problem I have with this is that my intent was to have a master node at my main school and a storage node at various campuses but what I found yesterday was that if I am imaging a machine at campus A it may pull an image from Campus B which would take up precious bandwidth.
Someone correct me if I am wrong but what I believe the storage nodes are most useful for is multi-casting and in my particular set-up it would be better to have individual master nodes at each campus and copy any new images manually to each campus.

Thats exactly why i devloped the location patch and Tom has now recoded it as a plugin. You set the location as Campus A for the host and it will only pull the image from that node that uve assigned to location campus A and if u dnt slecify a node u can set it to a storage group also.

Good to know. I did some searching around and it looks like the patch is available for .31 and will be in .33 but currently not in .32. Is that right?
-
Yes i never released the re-coded version for 0.32 and it already is available in 0.33b
-
When will .33 be available for upgrade?
