add boot menu to deploy associated image

@x23piracy Tom said in add boot menu to deploy associated image:
A new item in FOG Settings under FOG Boot Settings will allow you to display the images as a list or not.
It sounds like there is now a global option to do this.
-
@george1421 I should clarify, there “will be” the ability to make this choice when I push up the next RC.
If you all want to use this now, please install the working branch.

We all must understand the impact of turning on (or off depending on the logic used) this function. With the display only defined images enabled you will not be able to do a quick image on an unregistered host. Because an unregistered host will not be in fog so there will be nothing to display in that quick image menu. If you turn this feature off then you will be able to quick image any unregistered system, but you will also see all possible images when you try to quick image a registered host.
This is a handy feature as long as you understand the caveats of it being enabled/disabled.
-
@george1421 That’s precisely what my logic flow is.
If the image list is enabled, show a list of all defined images. This will work for unregistered and registered hosts. If a host is registered, the associated image will be selected for the user and will automatically begin imaging after the PXE Timeout period.
If the image list is disabled, it will only present a registered host it’s associated image and will begin imaging after the PXE Timeout period. If a registered host has no image associated, it will print the error. If an unregistered host selects the deploy image item, it will print the error.
In ALL cases (On or off) if you have no images defined it will print the error.

@Tom-Elliott don’t slap me but where exactly is the option located?

@Tom-Elliott thanks, tested it’s working as expected. Thank You!

@Tom-Elliott
I checked, but I get this message,
“Host is not valid, host has no image assigned, or there are no images defined on the server.”
But I have a image assigned to this host, win10-3
-
@lebrun78 Then something is wrong with your configuration.
The message will only happen in the cases I described.

@Tom-Elliott
Trying to found the source of the problem, I’ve just created a new image, capture it from win10-3.After reboot, I have always the same error.
In log I have the no error at capture
Where should I have a look ?
