      I had a 4tb disk in the server, that I installed fog on. The OS and images are on this disk. I ran out of space, and added another 4 Tb disk to the fog server. It’s this new disk I’m having problems with, the old disk works fine.
      The new disk is mounted as /images2.
      There is no NAS involved, it’s all local, which it has to be. I’m not allowed to use anything except the 1 server, and must keep it on the network the clients are on, it’s not allowed to connect outside, to another NAS box for example.

      Thanks

      Julian

        The problem is now, how do I get the images named correctly and in the images2 directory instead of being named the MAC address and in the /images2/dev directory.

        Thanks

          Well, a simple work around would be something like this:

          [CODE]mv /images2/dev/MacAddressHere /images2/EXACT_Image_Name_You_Chose[/CODE]

          And when I say exact, look at the path in your image definition (in the web UI). Normally, stuff like underscores and whatnot are truncated, the actual file name that it should be will be in the PATH section.

          But, can you verify that when you used FTP to transfer a file, can you verify you were accessing the correct storage node?

          Did you ECHO some text to /images2/dev/text.txt and then try to move that via FTP to /images/text.txt ??

            I have to get it working with the front end, although the mv command would work, In the long term I won’t be the only one using this so it needs to work fine, unfortunately.

            Here’s the text from the windows ftp to the fog server,

            ftp> open 10.10.1.5
            Connected to 10.10.1.5.
            220 (vsFTPd 3.0.2)
            User (10.10.1.5:(none)): fog
            331 Please specify the password.
            Password:
            230 Login successful.
            ftp> pdw
            Invalid command.
            ftp> pwd
            257 “/home/fog”
            ftp> cd /images2
            250 Directory successfully changed.
            ftp> put test.txt
            200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
            425 Failed to establish connection.

            I redid this, I noticed that it didn’t transfer the file, but logged in. This suggests file/directory permissions, but my previous post shows what they were set to, are they wrong? Or should the directories be set to root root, rather than fog root?

            Incidentally the machines being imaged have 2 drives in them
            I’m getting desperate, I’ll have to explain to my boss why this isn’t working tomorrow, any suggestions?

              Dumb question but, your Windows firewall is off, right? Like… totally off? Exceptions for stuff like TFTP don’t really work… I couldn’t get them to work anyways… maybe FTP might be the same… best to turn it off.

              Also,

              Can you try to use FTP from the FOG server itself? If it works, then that is a valuable troubleshooting piece.

                      Here are some screen shots of the storage node and image details, any suggestions?

                          Thank you for your screenshots, but can you test that Wayne-Workman ask for ?

                            I don’t have a ftp server to test it with, so I used ftp.kernel.org, being a public site, I couldn’t actually finish the upload,

                            220 Welcome to kernel.org
                            Name (ftp.kernel.org:image): anonymous
                            331 Please specify the password.
                            Password:
                            230 Login successful.
                            Remote system type is UNIX.
                            Using binary mode to transfer files.
                            ftp> put /tmp/test.txt
                            local: /tmp/test.txt remote: /tmp/test.txt
                            200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
                            550 Permission denied.

                            But this is as far as I got.

                            Is there any other test you’d like me to perform?

                            Thanks

                              You have an FTP server. Your FOG server is an FTP server.

                              On your FOG server, if you go to Terminal, you should be able to use FTP from there, and test moving files, uploading files, etc.

                                Tom kindly fixed it for me, I’m very grateful. I want to document it properly in case anyone else has the problem, which I’ll do tomorrow, its 23:45 here and after a week of trying to get it to work I need some beauty sleep!!

                                Thank you all for your help, it’s much appreciated, sleep well.

                                Yours

                                  The problem was that the master node check box wasn’t selected. As it was a new storage node, it needed selecting.

                                  Thank you all for your help. It’s much appreciated.
