I would like to write a text file in “/ etc” after deploying the ubuntu client with fog.
I found on the internet a script to rename the pc that works very well
but I would also like to write the name of the group that serves as a reference for an application per room -
You need to use a post install script to do “stuff” after imaging is complete and before the first boot of the target OS.
As for changing the system name, you can do it in the post install script or if you use the fog client on the *nix box then the fog client will do that for you too.

I want to write text files with
Écho $groupename > /ext/etc/Groupon
On the client fog
But what the environ variable ? -

Change this file on your server:/images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownloadto read as:#!/bin/bash ## This file serves as a starting point to call your custom postimaging scripts. ## <SCRIPTNAME> should be changed to the script you're planning to use. ## Syntax of post download scripts are #. ${postdownpath}<SCRIPTNAME> . ${postdownpath}/write_etc_file.shThen you could create this script:
/images/postdownloadscripts/write_etc_file.shand mark it as executable.
Then fill it with whatever echo statements and logic you want:#!/bin/bash file='/etc/some/blah.conf' echo "some config" > $file echo "some more config" >> $fileFor that above script to work, you will need to mount the disk that you just imaged to some directory at the start of that script, and then execute those commands using the new mounted directory. So this implies you know some things about the hosts, such as if they are using /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 or /dev/sdb2 or whatever.
As far as the names and functions and such, thanks to @george1421 we have a great description of them here (that I’ve added a little to also):
#The below are from sourcing the funcs.sh script. # ftp # IP Address from Storage Management-General # hostname # Host Name from Host Managment-General # img # Image Name from Image Management-General # mac # Primary MAC from Image Management-General # osid # Host Image Index number from Image Management-General # storage # IP Address + Image Path from Storage Management-General # storageip # IP Address from Storage Management-General # web #IP Address + Web root from Storage Management-General #The below are from querying the fog server. # shutdown # Shut down at the end of imaging # hostdesc #Host Description from Host Managment-General # hostip # IP address of the FOS client # hostimageid # ID of image being deployed # hostbuilding # Left over from very old versions of fog, not used anymore. # hostusead # Join Domain after image task from Host Management-Active Directory # hostaddomain # Domain name from Host Management-Active Directory # hostaduser # Domain Username from Host Management-Active Directory # hostadou # Organizational Unit from Host Management-Active Directory # hostproductkey= # Host Product Key from Host Management-Active Directory # imagename # Image Name from Image Management-General # imagedesc # Image Description from Image Management-General # imageosid # Operating System from Image Management-General # imagepath # Image Path from Image Management-General (/images/ assumed) # primaryuser # Primary User from Host Management-Inventory # othertag # Other Tag #1 User from Host Management-Inventory # othertag1 # Other Tag #2 from Host Management-Inventory # sysman # System Manufacturer from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # sysproduct # System Product from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # sysserial # System Serial Number from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # mbman # Motherboard Manufacturer from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # mbserial # Motherboard Serial Number from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # mbasset # Motherboard Asset Tag from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # mbproductname # Motherboard Product Name from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # caseman # Chassis Manufacturer from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # caseserial # Chassis Serial from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # caseasset # Chassis Asset from Host Management-Inventory (from SMBIOS) # location # Host Location (name) from Host Management-GeneralYou can find a full tutorial written on FOG postdownload scripts here:
https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7740/the-magical-mystical-fog-post-download-scriptThis stuff is also completely valid for fog postinitscripts too, which are scripts that run just before FOS begins the imaging process (typically only used for data destruction or backup).

thank you
i put all in my script
but some of the environment variable is not there
I would like to retrieve the value of the fog group to write in the firefox settingsecho $groupname > /ext/etc/GM_ESU

the name change works the group setting associated with the class room.my script

You mean the group a host is assigned to I guess!? First, one host can be assigned to several groups so this could be an issue. Second, as far as I know this information is not handed to the client yet and I don’t see why we should do so. Third, you should be able to retrieve the information (group name) via an external API call from the FOG backend. Search the forum on how to use the API.
