How to recover deleted image
-
@quazz Yess image number 4 is a newly created on pointing to the /images/MasterImage folder. What happened was that I thought the image FOLDER name was MasterImage1803. But when I checked I see only MasterImage.
HOLY CRAP I CHANGED THE COMPRESSION THING AND THE IMAGING SEEMS TO BE GOING THROUGH!
Will let you know once target boots up.
(I did deploy that image on a machine once so I know it took) -
@jackiejack Imaging went through perfect. THANK YOU QUAZZ.
To recover deleted image:
- ls /images to find image name (du -h to find size of folders). Take note of the image folder name.
- Recreate image definition. Make sure it is pointing to the right folder name (must be same path as the original one)
- IF DEPLOYMENT PROBLEMS: Set compression of this image def to right value. Check your previous image before the deleted one. In my case my I put my new image definition to this previous value.*
- Make sense to reassign this image to the original computers associated with this image (in my case it was only the master computer I was working on).
- Think twice before deleting images!
*(Apparently when new image definition is created FOG may assign a different compression???)
Thanks to FOG devs for considering idiots like me!

@jackiejack What manager and compression setting did you need to set it to?
-
@tom-elliott Image Manager Partclone Gzip
I was confused about what to choose. Because as you can see in the screen shot that the compression for basic image is Partclone Compressed. So I just went into that image definition and saw the Gzip.
