Rolling Reboot -- FOG Client AD issue

[Tom Elliott]

I’ve confirmed the non closing multicast task. I still don’t understand what you mean by “I kill the taskings” Which tasking are you referring to? The host’s individual tasking, or the multicast tasking?

THe non-closing multicast will be available for RC-5.

[Tom Elliott]

@Tom-Elliott and by that I mean will be fixed.

@Tom-Elliott
Ok. So the fix I have is to cancel the active task for the problem host in task manager. Than, I go into the MYSQL database on the server and clear out the task there. I then stop and restart the multi tasking service. Then things seem to be fine for the next session.

@Wayne-Workman Here is the Apache2 Error.log file for today. I did notice their was a fatal error the day before. It appears that this same entry happened many times that day.

Well, I’m back at it again. I noticed that this issue also occurs on unicasts. I deployed several machines yesterday; pushing each machine as I added them to FOG. I had about half of those machines where the task never completed in the “Active Task” screen and went into reboot hell.

I had a snapin addon on these guys. I’m going to try re-pushing them without said plugin and see what happens.

Cheers,

Joe

@Joe-Gill please try updating too.

[Joe Gill]

@Tom-Elliott

Will do and I’ll update. It happens even without snapins running. But I’ll update and see if it continues.

Thanks!

@Tom-Elliott

Well after an update, I still had 1 out of 4 clients do the rolling reboot. It’s interesting because the one that was stuck, was a different model. I"m wondering if their isn’t a driver issue with the image as it’s a universal image. The only funny thing is that, again, after you delete the task from the active task list, things proceed as they should. AD add works, drivers seem fine, everything is happy. So I’m still a little stumped. LOL!

If you’d like any logs just say so and I’ll post whatever you need.

I’ll be away from the office tomorrow but I’ll probably still check in some time. I can always remote in and send you something.

Thanks!

Cheers,

Joe

Well I am currently running version RC-8. I am still having the rolling reboot issue with one of my images. I am deploying a new image this morning on a few remaining machines. I’m wondering if it’s not my image instead of FOG. In the image I’m deploying this morning I have changed the order in which the SetupComplete finishes. I was having SetupComplete install AV first and then do some other tasks… What I failed to realize is that this causes the machine to reboot before the script finishes and it does not let FOG finish. I had a similar issue with snapins not finishing because of a reboot. If the new image seems to resolve this, I’ll be sure to let you all know.

Thanks for all of the support!

Cheers,

Joe Gill

@Joe-Gill said in Rolling Reboot -- FOG Client AD issue:

What I failed to realize is that this causes the machine to reboot before the script finishes and it does not let FOG finish.

Bingo.

If it wasn’t your setup, we’d be having a dozen new threads every day about the same issue.

The new image seems to work flawlessly, like it should! I’ll have to adjust my script on the other image and go from there. I’m glad I finally managed to figure this one out.

You can change this one to solved!

Cheers!

OP had AntiVirus installing inside SetupComplete.cmd before the FOG Client was re-enabled and started. The specific AntiVirus installation caused a reboot, which left the SetupComplete.cmd un-finished, and therefore all these other problems happened.

Consider building a snapin for the AntiVirus, which will auto-queue for any computer that is told to image and has the snapin associated with it, and the snapin will deploy after imaging is completed.
