Image task not going through
-
@sebastian-roth Right, whole picture is good lol.
*Attempting to register hostā¦ Already reistered as 64006a699641
BUT! My FOG management console shows no such host!If you want more screenshots (actual screenshots) let me know.
-
@jackiejack But it looks like that is registered from the screenshot. The T1700NextToMe. Is that device still registered?
-
@themcv Nothing in hosts | list all hosts. It was in ālist all hostā this morning with the red icon. That red icon said host cannot be found. So I thought I would delete all the host defs, image defs, and start back from scratch. Now, the ting not even coming up!
-
Whatās under the host management page? Task list all only shows āactiveā hosts.
-
@tom-elliott Thatās the thing. Host management | List all host shows absolutely no host.
-
@jackiejack Is there a āPending Hostsā link?
-
-
@jackiejack Well Look there sir.
-
It appears this machine was deleted, then somebody put it through quick registration potentially? Then tried doing a full registration? Iām only guessing. Pending hosts typically pop up because of the FOG Client installed on the machine checking in with the server. It will use the name the machine currently has associated to it at the time it checks in to register, which in this case appears to have been its mac address.
-
@tom-elliott Deleted hosts, put fog service smart installer, tried quick regist but not full.
So, uninstall fog service, delete pending host and re-register?
-
@jackiejack Just delete the host and reregister, before deleting the pending host, just power off the machine so it doesnāt accidentally pop back in.
-
@tom-elliott Deleted smart installer and all hosts and images and all pendings. Re-registered host. Re created image. Associated host with image. Same error. Task not going through. Red icon by hosts, image no valid data. The host restarted no problem.
-
@jackiejack Iām so confused.
Why do you keep deleting all hosts and images, all pendings.
Just delete the host in question.
What image is associated? You are doing capture or deploy? Did you capture the image first?
-
Red icon is just āPing Hostsā this has no bearing on the ability to image.
-
@tom-elliott Doing a capture
After I created an image, I go back to my host and click host image and choose the image definition, update. Then hosts, capture image to create task. Then USB on host, and choose deploy/capture.I even tried a brand new host - a windows 8.1 old dell. New host, new image def (win 8.1), associate, no smart installer, capture task, USB host capture, it goes well then when host reboots, FOG server task still swirling. No valid image data.
(I keep deleting everything so I would start back from scratch/noob fears)
-
@jackiejack what version of fog are you running?
-
@tom-elliott latest one 144
-
@jackiejack Right, so what I did was got another new host, and registered it.
It shows up with red icon in host management. Yes, right there in the beginning just after registering. So? I thought that my USB FOS was the problem. Created a new one, using the george fos-usb.img, Win32DiskImager. Exact same error.
At first register, red icon. No pending hosts
-
@tom-elliott said in Image task not going through:
Red icon is just āPing Hostsā this has no bearing on the ability to image.
See what Tom said about the red icon. Nothing to do with imaging.
So what error exactly do you get now? As you seem to have registered the client, just schedule a task for it and reboot to see whatās happening. Post a picture in case you run into an error.
-
@sebastian-roth Yes sir, doing that right now. (I am racists against red exclamation marks lol). Will give you an update first thing tomorrow (Partclone is taking a while)
