Deleting "in use" images

[CoxM]

Hi All,

We have a couple of old images that are still in use on a few machines.

Its going to be a while before I can reimage those PC’s with the newer image, in the meantime am I OK to delete the image from Fog and the associated image data files? Will PC’s that are assigned that image in Fog be OK?

Thanks.

Yes you can delete the image, FOG will not care about the missing image until you go to redeploy to those hosts again. I have not tried this, but I suspect you will get an invalid image ID if you try to redeploy those hosts without first assigning a new image to them. But the only time you will have a problem in the future is when you are deploying to these systems and the image is unlinked.

@george1421 Perfect, thanks.
