    @george1421 So for the install just do the 20 GB and then do the other one later after the install? I’m not trying to set this up as a VM, isn’t that what a vmdk is for? This is a physical server.

      @ManofValor Sorry I shouldn’t think the whole world is virtualized.

      On your server do you have a single disk, array, or what?

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. 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!

        @george1421 Single. We are mostly virtualized, but not for this yet.

          Using the install GUI, do I do it like this:

          Manually partition OS with LVM at 20GB mounted on /boot using ext4

          Manually partition storage, for images, with LVM at 450GB mounted on /opt/fog/images using ext4

          Something along those lines?

                @ManofValor It’s not a fog question. It’s a Linux question. If CentOS 7 supports it (or any other distro of Linux), then fog can use it.

                    @ManofValor Looks good, the only suggestion I’d make is making the /boot partition 1GB. Who knows how long you’ll use this server?

                    Once I helped with a Ubuntu server that was literally out of space on it’s boot partition… We only got by because I found some older kernels to delete!

                      @ManofValor I know its probably too late, but I would have done the /opt mount point instead of /opt/fog/images. That way all of the opt stuff would go into that 400GiB drive. What you won’t get is /opt/fog/snapins that will still go onto the root partition. Sorry I was late, stuck in a teleconf call for 2 hours.

                        It’s not too late. I’d say go back and do it right.

                            @ManofValor Ok then just change the mount point to /opt and you should be good to go.

                            Linux (*nix) is a bit confusing for the windows folks. As windows gets older it gets more features like *nix. This whole mount point is cool once you understand it. Its a bit like what DFS is but on a local hard drive concept. You can traverse between hard drives or network shares for that matter, but just changing to a different directory. From the UI level there is no 😄 drive or d: drive. The d: drive would just be mounted to a directory and you would change into that directory for data to go onto the d: drive.

                              @george1421 Why using /opt/fog/images? As Wayne already said: “I would prefer though to mount the 2nd hdd to /images because /opt/fog/images is a deviation from the expected.” Both will work, but sticking with the default (/images) might be wise as well. @ManofValor Up to you.

                              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)

                                @Sebastian-Roth The logic is that the snapins (which could also be huge) would not be captured if only /images were mounted over on the new disk. My preference would be to keep EVERYTHING fog related in /opt/fog. (But I’m one of those type ‘A’ people, so that that for what it is. )

                                  @Sebastian-Roth Seeing that I am an infant (maybe a toddler by now) with this stuff I just went with a recommendation/suggestion.

                                    Ok, so CentOS is installed. We’ve done so much I just wanna make sure I take the right steps again. I just go straight to installing fog trunk right?

                                      Give it a go I’d say. Make sure your internet connection is fine so that kernel and init files are properly downloaded.

                                        Easier said than done. You might want to shoot him a PM. Poor guy keeps having a lot of network issues. I did some troubleshooting and I think his router isn’t letting the fog server’s traffic get out. He says there is no proxy but I’m not so sure about that.

                                          @Wayne-Workman I’ve checked and asked my boss, who built our system from the ground up, and we are not behind a proxy.
