Modified PHP configurations

cadyfish

Afternoon first of all I love fog it is a great free-source imaging solution. I have a couple of minor configuration changes I would like to share. If you want to try them copy them to your install location and re-run installer:
[LIST]
[]Replace HostManagementPage.class.php, ImageManagementPage.class.php, GroupManagementPage.class.php, TaskManagementPage.class.php in the download dir /fog/packages/web/lib/pages
[LIST]
[]Mainly title changes, removed some things that didn’t use, and added image id to ImageManagementPage
[/LIST]
[]Replace BootMenu.class in the download dir /fog*/packages/web/lib/fog
[]Replace FogMountBootImage.sh in /fog/utils/Boot Image Editor
[LIST]
[*]This was probably was really the only issue I ran into due to the old boot editor was built for .32 which used different compression.
[/LIST]
[/LIST]

What, specifically, have you changed? Just wondering if you have a personal changelog. I can edit files and stuff so we can make them “defaults” as needed. I don’t have a ton of time to sit and read each file though, so I hopeyou understand.

Thanks

Thank you for your time

The ImageMangement, TaskManagement, GroupManagement, and HostManagement pages I haven’t edited as those seem more specific to your needs.

The BootMenu hasn’t been edited…yet. I’m thinking I’m going to add a “selector” box for the “default” choice option in PXE Settings. That way you can choose for your environment what’s “default”. Seeing as “register” in most cases is only done once per system and the system boots to the local disk after that, in most cases, I think a “selector” would be useful for times of new systems coming in I suppose though. I can also add a selector to allow “shutdown” from register as well if you all are interested.

I’ve edited the FOGMountBootImage.sh file.

I kind of figured regarding the management pages I didn’t think it would hurt to ask.

I like your selection box idea better than the coded option it leaves more universal. Going along that line would it possible to add in iso folder location for the boot menu selection? So say someone wants to add dell diagnostics for example just through it in that folder and fly away:). I realize you can modify the advanced boot menu I think it would just simply the process for others to add items that they may want to utilize.

Thank you,

Hi,

ui look’s interesting cadyfish could you explain your changes a little more precise?
I can see your comments to the changes but what was the personal reason for you to change that things?
I ask from my personal sight to find clever changes, so i hope you understand my question:

Example: I use rar because it can compress better then zip but 7zip is better then rar…

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35354, member: 7271”] I can also add a selector to allow “shutdown” from register as well if you all are interested.[/quote]

Tom me is not all but i am interested.

Piracy,

Most of the web changes I listed were personal preference, but here is a little more detail:

[U]GroupManagementPage & HostManagementPage[/U]
I prefer the upload and or deploy and mutlicast to not be right next to each other so I moved the icons around. I also removed the edit button since you can click on the host and it takes you to the same location, along with modifying the download header to Unicast (did the same thing in the TaskManagementPage. With making some of those changes I changed the alignment of the buttons make it line up better

[U]ImageManagementPage[/U]
I added the Image ID back to this page I thought it was useful in the older versions of fog if you do a fare share of full register and deploy directly from a computer since it asks you for a image number. Granted you can find it with “?” but if you have a large list of images or a small screen it might just be easier to know what the number is. I realize this number is auto generated with mySQl and doesn’t really mean much and that is probably why it was removed.

I removed the edit button off of this screen along with Storage group due to I didn’t use it. Changing Upload to Upload date was also a personal preference.

I also removed the comment when hovering over Image name and changed it to be on the Image Id to show the description on the image instead of when it was deployed and etc. since it was already on this page.
