Hosts not imaging - HELP

@Sebastian-Roth I don’t seem to be able to get it out - it just pastes the link.

[Junkhacker]

please post a screenshot of the image profile page of the image you’re trying to restore

@Junkhacker
Sorry wrong one: but I will have to use both at some point. one for each domain/user

[Junkhacker]

ok, rereading this thread i realized what the problem could be, and the images you just uploaded almost certainly confirm it. you’re trying to deploy a non-resizable image to too small of a disk. if you use a larger drive in the computer, or reupload the image as a resizable image, it should work fine.

[prestop]

@Junkhacker Oh man…I’ll try that right now. TFTP stopped on reboot of computer. Is the command : sudo service tftp restart? Ubuntu said it wasn’t recognized but I thought that’s what I used the last time.

My guess is you are trying to restore an image from a bigger source disk to a smaller destination disk.

About the TFTP. Ubuntu is sometimes picky with those services. Better change to a full root shell via sudo -i and then run service tftp restart (no sudo required anymore).

@Sebastian-Roth unrecognized service(?)

@prestop Can you try: service tftpd-hpa restart

[prestop]

@Tom-Elliott
tftpd-hpa start/running, process 5058

Oooooops

OK now I connect but get "unable to locate image file for Windows 7/8! (sys.img.000)
argh.

@prestop
Something else changed as well:
the one image that had a size listed for client disk now also says “0.00iB”

[Junkhacker]

are you deploying to a larger disk, or uploading a resizable image?

[prestop]

@Junkhacker I am downloading to a 250G disk.

[Tom Elliott]

@prestop What happens if you run:

service nfs-kernel-server restart and try again?

[prestop]

@Junkhacker I set the image to ‘single disk - resizable’

[prestop]

@Tom-Elliott
unrecognized service

@prestop This thread is several pages long… Forgive me for not reading it all. The commands Tom just posted are the ones for Ubuntu/Debian. Also - you can find all that stuff right here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_NFS

… you haven’t been mixing up the upload/download have you?
upload to server, download to host (this naming convention has been changed in trunk)
i’m just worried that you’ve uploaded blank images over your existing ones
