    The following is my FOG layout which is Fog master and another storage node running on version 1.5.10.15.
    a) Fog Master with storage = 192.168.1.1
    b) Fog storage node = 192.168.1.2

    I have a physical box came with a 10G network adapter and I want it to replace the Fog master. I want all the settings from the Fog master such as Host (name and mac), Groups, Images, Storage node and etc migrated to the new physical box. I still want to retain the item b (storage node)
    I would appreciate someone could guide me how to achieve. Thank you

      @Alan-Lim Here is a wiki page that describes migration of FOG servers. https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Migrate_FOG

      In general you will copy over the raw image files in the /images directory, copy over any custom scripts in /images/dev/postinstall directory then export the database and then on the new FOG server import the database.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        @george1421 Thank you for the information. I have managed to migrate/images, /snapin and the database to another new FOG server. Some steps needed to be done such as replacing the original IP with new IP. Because I intended not to use the original IP for the new FOG server as a backup plan. If anythings goes wrong with the new FOG server and I can revert to the original FOG server. 🙂
