      All these tests are done in a room of 30 Dell 3010s as they are the most common machines we have.

            Well I finally got everything working for me. The issue turned out not to be fog related or kpxe file related at all…The issue was a second DHCP server running on my network - I tracked it down using WireShark. I inherited a mess of a network and should have thought of looking for a rogue DHCP to begin with. Anyways things are working now though it does seem a bit slow I can deal with that I am doing my first upload and it started at about 250MB/min it’s running at 350MB/min right now.

            I don’t know what could be the cause of that I have this running on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM on a Hyper-V 2012 R2 Server only one other VM on it that isn’t heavily utilized. Anyways if anyone could point me in the right direction with the speed that would be great otherwise oh well at least its flipping running!

              decreasing your compression rate can speed up uploads, but will have little effect on downloads, which are quite fast anyway

                VM’s have known “slowness” issues on upload compared to physical systems typically, but as Junkhacker states, the compression affects upload speeds as well. In 0.32 there was no “easy” way to adjust the compression rating, but with 1.X.X, you can specify this in FOG Configuration->FOG Settings->FOG Boot Settings->FOG_PIGZ_COMP slider bar. 9 means MAX compression which basically means it will be the slowest to upload, but compress to the smallest size. 0 means least compression but takes up the most space on the server. You can play with these settings to see if it will help you out.

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!

                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)

                  Is anyone else getting this issue still? Or have others been sorted out? Maybe there is something wrong with our spec?
                  We are currently running ubuntu 12.04, should i try going to 13.04/13.10?

                    I will talk to Tom today and get some new pxe’s to try out see if we can get it down to one solid file. I’m currently using undionly.kpxe.1312 from release 1312. It seems stable for my machines.

                      try the latest undionly.kpxe, a longer max wait time for DHCP responses has been added and it seems to help a lot

                        Where can i find the latest undionly.kpxe? I’m sort of losing track of all the ones that i have tried.

                                  Hello Tom,

                                  Thanks for your prompt help. I will provide you STP details in few minutes, till i have one more input for you.

                                  We have FOG Server which have 4 1G Ethernet ports and we have created bond0 from ubuntu side so that we will get 4g pipe.
                                  At switch side we have Nexus 2010 switch on which we have configured portchannel of this 4 ports.

                                  So do you think we have to disable or enable portfast/Rapid STP on this 4 ports.

                                  Just for your info we have tried replacing below kpxe files, but no luck with it
                                  [B][/B]

                                  Thanks,
                                  Sushant

                                    My switches are not STP
                                    Where do you think should i enable portfast, between fog side and dhcp server???
                                    what do you think problem is, is it time response between DHCP and Client or DHCP and FOG server.???

                                    can you give me link to download latest undionly.kpxe???

                                    thanks,

                                        When you say, “My switches are not STP”, what do you mean? They’re not STP brand, or they’re don’t have STP Enabled?
