1.6 Issues/Reporting

[Joe Gill]

@Tom-Elliott

One other feature that would be nice is when you check / un-check hosts from certain things, for instance groups, that it would recognize that as selecting the item. Right now you have to highlight the whole thing to select it.

Thanks!

[Tom Elliott]

@joe-gill I’m aware of this. The functionality idea, however:

Individual checkboxes work only on that one element. Selected items work “en mass”. I just haven’t gotten around to making that function appropriately yet.

No problem! I’ll keep that in mind. I’m testing multicasting now.

I discovered a few things that could have been effecting multicasting performance. If this works, I’ll have to unicast most of the lab. Basically, we have some small low end consumer switches that some of these hosts are plugged in to. I had 4 hosts in that lab that are directly wired in to our smart switches (cisco). We did check to see if we had any packet loss during the previous multicast session and we did not and the cable checked out fine. So we’ll see.

Favicon icon is missing (although you may have known that since it’s in working)

@tom-elliott Hi Tom, memory_limit, post_max_size and upload_max_filesize are all at 1900M in php.ini. But one of these 3 values were at 0 on fog interface with new 1.6 (I don’t remenber which one and forced it to 1900 in FOG web interface as in php.ini didn’t change my snapin problem)

Thanks and once again , you’re doing great job

@matthieu-jacquart are the snapins 1900M or smaller?

[Matthieu Jacquart]

@tom-elliott nop, very much smaller, I tried to create a powershell script snapshot…
But even tried to update existing snapshot (few MB) didn’t change anything (snapin file in opt/fog/ is not updated)

[Tom Elliott]

@matthieu-jacquart then I think it’s safe to say, for right now at least, uploading weapons isn’t working. This isn’t surprising to me though I will work to get it fixed as soon as I can.

@Tom-Elliott So far everything that we have thrown at 1.6 as far as functionality wise is going well so far. I have noticed that at times the disk activity becomes abnormally active and causes the CPU % to get at 100. I had set CPU cores to 2 so i gave it two more and now up to 4. Granted I haven’t ran a git pull since I first installed it but running that now. I don’t have any storage nodes defined yet and I know there is no active tasks when this is occurring. Any thoughts what would cause this? I rebooted server and as soon as it comes back 100% again on CPU and disk i/o active. FYI this VM is also on a Hyper-V host that also has a production fog server that is working fine. I don’t think it’s a HD but could be related to my VHD. Thanks.

@Tom-Elliott
I can’t seem to get 1.6 to do a Wipe task. It will PXE boot the host but it never creates the task.

@Tom-Elliott OK something to notate. So I did confirm with my coworkers that they are indeed imaging but on the tasks page they do not show up as actually imaging. This would explain why I noticed HD I/O spiking as well as the outbound on the NIC lol but strangely they are using a separate account I created in the FOG web UI. Maybe any other account than FOG doesn’t display the activity and hosts that have been registered under that account. I found this to be weird because it was working before and we have a project imaging 100 computers but we have probably only imaged about 25 and this is when it started happening. Hopefully this makes sense.

Multicast fails to start on hosts… Again. I resolved my other issues. I purged php from my server and re-ran the FOG installer. Now I can see multicast sessions appear on my server just fine.

I followed:
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_Downloading_-_Multicast

And successfully sent my laptop the fogsettings file. Nothing else multicast seems to work.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Not a huge issue by any means, but there’s a small bug with the UI.

When the side menu is collapsed and you hover over “Storage Groups” the list items’ text run out of the containing div.

I’m getting this now on Ubuntu 18.04.1. Fresh install on VirtualBox VM. git checkout working-1.6:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method Host::getMasterStorageNode()

While trying to create a task.

Version 1.5.4.586
