    @prestop web interface, storage management, DefaultMember > Management Password
    also, you’ll want to update the information in the hidden file /opt/fog/.fogsettings where it stores the password for fog upgrades
    off the top of my head, i can’t remember where else it will be needed
    technically, also FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD in fog settings. but that shouldn’t be important unless you change the IP of the server

          @prestop oh yeah, btw, the trunk version of fog is faster. depending on circumstances, it can be a LOT faster. lol

            Well, it looked as though it mostly worked , it did /sda1, /sda2 but then it said the disk was too small to image /sda3. the machine boots to the windows recovery console - like if you had your cd in the drive to restore windows.

              @prestop did you replace the drive with a larger one, as previously suggested? your non-resizable image will need to be deployed and recaptured to become resizable. you’ll want to check the “Schedule Shutdown after task completion” checkbox when you deploy, and then schedule a capture after it finishes. if you don’t boot up the computer after imaging, it doesn’t even have to be a computer compatible with the image you’re deploying.

                    @prestop i’m afraid there really aren’t any other options. if you have a lot of storage available on another computer, you could create a virtual machine to deploy it to (but that’s going to have some headaches involved too). i’m guessing the original drive was 500GB?

                      Yes - but there’s a lot of programs and things that I don’t know much about that appear to be in the image. I was hoping to be able to figure it out at some later date.

                          or even borrow one. once you just need to recapture the image, you won’t need it permanently.

                            @Junkhacker I don’t think so - I think it was this machine, it was listed as a tester but I don’t know. All the machines he previously did were these dells with 250G drives. Strange.

                                  So, these disks have 3 parts in them and the last one is too small on the device for the image stored? Does that sound right?

                                    @prestop from the errors you described before, that sounds right. the image size is too large for the disk. it runs out of space at the 3rd partition.

                                      @Junkhacker bare in mind that non-resizable is really strict about size. being smaller by just a tiny amount is enough for it to fail. there aren’t a lot of circumstances where i recommend it over resizeable

                                        @Junkhacker Doesn’t make sense to me - he didn’t have any different computers. What is confusing is that the image on the server is alot smaller than 250G.

                                          @prestop that’s because of 2 things. partclone is file-system aware, and only copies the data in use, and fog compresses it.
                                          however, a non-resizable image is a snapshot of the drive just as it existed on the source computer. when a resizeable image is created, a few more steps are taken before the image is uploaded, like shrinking the partitions down to the size of the data on the drives (plus some buffer space).
