Upload/Download what's where?

[Michael Thomas]

Would it be possible to change this text as it does not become clear (for me noobie) what is going on as it always goes “to a computer” (Someone used copy&paste and then replaced “send” with “upload”?)

Good:
[URL=‘http://10.51.251.180/fog/management/index.php?node=host&sub=deploy&id=10&type=1’]
Download[/URL] Deploy action will send an image saved on the FOG server to the client computer with all included snapins.

Upload[/URL] Upload will pull an image from a client computer that will be saved on the server.

Not clear what will be written where(if you don’t already know):
[URL=‘http://10.51.251.180/fog/management/index.php?node=tasks&sub=hostdeploy&id=10&type=15’]
Download - Debug[/URL] Download - Debug mode allows FOG to setup the environment to allow you send a specific image to a computer, but instead of sending the image, FOG will leave you at a prompt right before sending. If you actually wish to send the image all you need to do is type “fog” and hit enter.

Upload - Debug[/URL] mode allows FOG to setup the environment to allow you Upload a specific image to a computer, but instead of Upload the image, FOG will leave you at a prompt right before restoring. If you actually wish to Upload the image all you need to do is type “fog” and hit enter.

maybe becomes clear to a noobie too what’s done when:

[URL=‘http://10.51.251.180/fog/management/index.php?node=tasks&sub=hostdeploy&id=10&type=15’]
Download - Debug[/URL] Download - Debug mode allows FOG to setup the environment to send a specific image to a client computer, but FOG will leave you at a prompt right before [COLOR=#ff0000]restoring[/COLOR]. If you actually wish to [COLOR=#ff0000]store[/COLOR] the image to the client all you need to do is type “fog” and hit enter.

If you actually wish to [COLOR=#ff0000]pull[/COLOR] the image from the client all you need to do is type “fog” and hit enter.

This isn’t a bug this is a feature request -.-

[Michael Thomas]

OK, thanks 4 info.
How can i move it to the feature request section or do i have to make a second post there?

[Jaymes Driver]

just make a post in the feature request section

If you have other ideas on how we can make the GUI a little more friendly, please let us know!

I’ll see about getting the descriptions edited, but I’d rather not make a schema change to alter text. While I’ve done so in the past, it’s really seems like overkill to keep adding to schema versions simply to edit a typo or change some text.

That said, there are class variables that I could work with to get the same effect without altering the schema.
