      Description

      The default of /images works just fine when I image a machine. However the / partition only has 15 GB of space. The /home partition has over 500GB of space for images. I created a /home/images folder and made it the master node, the only node for holding images. I am getting a permission denied error.

      NFS is mounting 172.16.61.17:/home/images/dev on /images failed: permissioned denied.

      I checked the perms and they appear to be ok at 777 on the /home/images folder recursively.

      Any ideas?

      Just trying to change the default path from /images to /home/images

        What does your /etc/exports file look like?

          /images *(ro,sync,nowdelay…fsid1)
          /images/dev *(ro,sync,nowdelay…fsid2)

          not seeing /home/images… does it need to be here, if so I believe it would be something like

          /home/images/dev *(ro, sync…fsid3)

          ?

            Got it, was missing the .mntcheck and dev folder. Not sure why the dev did not get created but just copied over and maintained perms.

            I am IMAGING!!!

            A great learning process for me for sure. Thank you for all the help. Now the lab is up. Back to 1.3.0 on CENTOS 7.2. I think I got it this time around no prob.

              Quick question:

              The FOG server was able to upload (capture) the image successfully, however when I look in /home/images (my new image path), I see the mac address as the image name instead of centos72IT1103, the image name associated with my hosts? The old fog server created the same name folder in /home/images as the image name in “Image Management”.

              V/R

                The mac address labeled folder is typically ONLY when you’re imaging. ro should actually read rw for the dev line.

                You should not need to have /home/images and /home/images/dev if your /images is a symbolic link to the /home/images point.

                  Not sure I understand what you are saying.

                  Do I only need the /home/images in my /etc/exports?
                  I think I understand that the /home/images should be rw instead of ro?

                    I think you setup /etc/exports properly if you were able to capture. I think you forgot to change the FTP path inside of Storage Management -> node -> FTP Path or Image Path.

                      @finvader You can leave your /etc/exports to default if you create a symbolic link to your /home/images

                      I think I understand that the /home/images should be rw instead of ro?

                      No, /home/images/dev should be rw

                      I don’t even know how it wrote anything in your /home/images/dev folder if it’s defined as ro in your exports…unless you never exported it and already have a symbolic link that is.

                      Assuming all of that is true, then you need to remove the /home/images line from /etc/exports and do what Wayne says.
