Deploying from Hosts Section in Web GUI Mgmt Produces Error "Failed to create deployment tasking for the following hosts Image not found on node: DefaultMember" after Upgrading FOG from 1.2.0 to GIT 7723

Hello.

Fog was upgraded from 1.2.0 to GIT 7723 where there was a newer install script which was CentOS7 aware and made appropriate changes. Now when deploying from Hosts in the web GUI Mgmt screen produces the error:

“Failed to create deployment tasking for the following hosts Image not found on node: DefaultMember”

Background Info: The box has two NIC’s where NIC1 connects to the site LAN and outbound and the other NIC2 attached to a switch to FOG/image/deploy the units privately on its own LAN on NIC2. The box had Fog 1.2.0 with CentOS 7 and worked well for almost a year with Dell models where PXE booting to upload and to deploy images ran smoothly.

But, with the new Lenovo’s with no Ethernet port built-in, those models required their branded ThinkPad USB3.0 to GigEthernet dongle/adapter where the Lenovo’s BIOS recognized that particular dongle to allow PXE boot. However, with 1.2.0, the Lenovo’s failed to boot past the DHCP stages. It was suggested to upgrade FOG to a later SVN or GIT release.

After upgrading, the error message above appears.

TIA for any suggestions and solutions.

I recommend that you update to the latest git version (somewhere north of 7769) because I think this issue has been resolved.

Updating to 7821 did not help.

@ppustisr Ok now that the git version isn’t the issue. Lets look at the second part of the error message. You are trying to deploy an image to a target computer. And that target computer has a reference o image (abe). Have you confirmed that image (abc) exists on the storage node associated with this target host? If you look in the /images folder on the storage node does the files exist and match the definition of the image from the web gui?

All images within respective subdirectories inside /images directory and correctly defined.

SOLUTION: Image paths inside web GUI for each image were changed from correct, established paths to dummy paths, saved changes and then paste back correct, established paths again, saved changes and now deployment works with no error msg.

This issue is solved. Thanks.
