Uploading to wrong storage group
-
Sorry, I wasn’t aware that an image can belong to more than one storage group. The relevant images were in one group (olifant), but it wasn’t marked as primary. It is marked primary now. The same error shows up when trying to deploy:
Note that I did not sensor anything in that image. There are no hosts listed…
-
@dolf it could be that the image uploaded to
/imagesinstead of the correct directory. Can you check?ls -lahRt /images -
Files are in the right places, IMO:

@dolf in your first post, you said you manually moved the image. Tree doesn’t show the permissions, which could be suspect. Please check those.
-
It actually does, using color, which obviously didn’t survive the copy paste. Here is the output with permissions (I already did chmod -R 777 * )

@dolf said in Uploading to wrong storage group:
/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
/images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
/mnt/olifant/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
/mnt/olifant/images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)That’s the problem I think (or at least one of them).
fsidcannot have duplicates.You have: 0,1,0,1
They should be: 0,1,2,3 -
Changed fsids as suggested, and rebooted. No change. To be honest, I have not worked with NFS before. Thanks for the help thus far.

@dolf Does tree list hidden files? The command I posted does. You should have these files in these directories:
/mnt/olifant/images/.mntcheck
/mnt/olifant/images/dev/.mntcheck
/images/.mntcheck
/images/dev/.mntcheck -
A few posts ago, I did post the output of
ls - lhawhich shows the existence of.hiddenfiles.
They are present with the right permissions, IMO, but I pasted the output in case I overlook something. -
Also - temporarily disable the
Koei (root)storage node. It’s a check box in it’s settings.Then see what happens.
-
No change when disabling koei. Also disabled olifant, tried again, enabled one and tried again, then both and tried again. No change.
-
@dolf Why does the olifant node have the directory
/mnt/...? In it’s description, you say it’s in lab2-server, is that the fog server or another server? Have you mounted a remote directory to the fog server? -
I have only one physical Ubuntu machine running fog, with two hard drives. There is a storage node on each, belonging to different storage groups, so that I don’t have to have all of the images on one disk (not enough space).
/mnt/olifantis simply the mount point for a physical 1.5TB internal SATA drive with one ext4 partition. -
@dolf Ok. I’m about out of ideas then.
I’m going to need to ask for the help of @Tom-Elliott, @Moderators and @Testers for ideas.
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!

@Wayne-Workman TBH I did not read the entire thread so if this has already been asked my apologies,
What is the results of
showmount -e 127.0.0.1?======
OP: If I understand this correctly you only have one FOG server but you have 2 hard drives in this physical server with each not having enough space for all of your images, do I understand this right? If so I think I would take a little different and less complex approach. There is two routes I can think of- Setup LVM and just add those disks to an LVM volume group and then create a LVM logical volume. Let LVM decide where to span the files on those two physical disks. Temp mount that LVM volume over /mnt and then move the content of /images to that LVM volume. Unmount /mnt and remount that new LVM volume over /images and be done with it. (make sure you update fstab). That way you are running a standard FOG configuration without having to deviate from the norm.
- On your existing FOG server create 2 directories under /images like olifant and koei. Mount those two drives over those directories. Then when you create your image definitions make sure you pick one of the two drives. So if you create an image name called WIN7X64 make sure the destination path isn’t /images/WIN7X64 but /images/koei/WIN7X64 instead. Its not as clean as doing it at the OS level as with LVM but it should work.

# showmount -e 127.0.0.1 Export list for 127.0.0.1: /mnt/olifant/images/dev * /mnt/olifant/images * /images/dev * /images *Thanks for the workaround ideas. Although I think we still have to solve the bug… If I apply a workaround, I won’t be able to help you find the bug.
Are there any success stories of having two nodes on one machine? Is it even supported?
-
If I add the image to the koei storage group as well, will it be copied (replicated) from
/mnt/olifant/images/to/images/? I could try that, remove it from the olifant group, and then add it again? -
@dolf I think you’re on to something there. The problem might be caused by the fact that the nodes are using the same interface.
To be honest, I’ve not seen this specific use case before, so I’m just guessing.
-
I’m curious if that 1.5TB drive can hold everything… if so, do away with the other node.
-
/imagescan hold everything, for now. I removed the second storage node and storage group. I’ll just move the older images to the extra drive and symlink them to /images/…So according to @Quazz , this is not supported. Fine by me. It seemed like a logical use case to me, so maybe we should say somewhere in the Wiki that this is not supported?
