      @boombasstic Not sure what is happening here or why it fails. Now that we have the exact table it tries to apply I can try to replicate the issue.

      Just to help me set this up you might post the contents of the current file d1.minimum.partitions you have in your image folder on the server.

      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          @boombasstic said in deploy issue after copying image to an other FOG server:

          d1.partitions

          label: gpt
...
/dev/nvme0n1p1 ... name="EFI system partition", attrs="RequiredPartition GUID:63"
/dev/nvme0n1p2 ... name="Microsoft reserved partition", attrs="GUID:63"
/dev/nvme0n1p3 ... name="Basic data partition"
/dev/nvme0n1p4 ... name="attrs=\x22RequiredPartition GUID:63"
/dev/nvme0n1p5 ... name="Basic data partition", attrs="RequiredPartition GUID:63"

          I think I figured out what is causing the problem in your case. Though I have no idea where this came from initially. Take a close look at the extra information of each partition above. All seem fine except partition number 4. The name and attrs parameter seem to be a mixup with a strange \x22 (ASCII hex code for ") in it.

          While sfdisk is happy to use the scrambled input like that our partition layout shrinking script will make /dev/nvme0n1p4 ... name="attrs=\x22RequiredPartition GUID:63", attrs=\x22RequiredPartition GUID:63" out of it and that finally kills sfdisk when reading the partition layout file:

          >>> Created a new GPT disklabel (GUID: 7D3BE2EA-722A-43A9-AEA0-1F36F17095D8).
/dev/sda1: Created a new partition 1 of type 'EFI System' and of size 260 MiB.
Partition #1 contains a vfat signature.
/dev/sda2: Created a new partition 2 of type 'Microsoft reserved' and of size 16 MiB.
/dev/sda3: Created a new partition 3 of type 'Microsoft basic data' and of size 75.4 MiB.
Partition #3 contains a ntfs signature.
/dev/sda4: line 12: unsupported command

            @boombasstic As a quick workaround you should be able to deploy this particular image (and let it expand properly) by manually adjusting the d1.partitions and d1.minimum.partitions file:

            /dev/nvme0n1p4 ... name="Basic data partition", attrs="RequiredPartition GUID:63"

            I will look into a possible fix in the scripts to better handle such scrambled input in the first place.

            Ok, found the change in the AWK script related to this. Will have to look into this deeper and do more testing.

              @boombasstic Did you give that a try?

                I am not sure to understand what you asked me to do.

                i tried changing the size of the data partition in the d1.minimum.partitions files, and set this partitions to fixed by adding its number in the d1.fixed_size_partitions

                but it did not work.

                  @boombasstic I did not ask you to change the size or fixed information. What I meant is that the name and attrs information is somehow messed up. So please edit d1.partitions and d1.minimum.partitions file and you should find this at the end of the line for partition number 4:

                  /dev/nvme0n1p4 ... name="attrs=\x22RequiredPartition GUID:63"

                  Change it so it looks like this:

                  /dev/nvme0n1p4 ... name="Basic data partition", attrs="RequiredPartition GUID:63"

                    I changed the d1.partitions and d1.minimum.partitions and it works.
