      Hello everyone!

      I’m going to need to clean up my storage space and I’d like to know if it’s possible to temporarily store image files to free up space?

      My idea:

      • I take a screenshot of my image parameters,
      • I assign another image to the PCs using this image to store elsewhere (or maybe I can leave this assignment anyway)
      • move the image folder contained in /images
      • delete the image from FOG

      As soon as I can, I do the opposite:

      • move the image folder to /images
      • recreate the image in FOG with my saved settings,
      • reassign the image to the PX.

      Will this work?

      Thank you for your help 🙏

        @Bristow-0 Is this a physical computer or VM? Is it possible to add a new storage device to the FOG server?

        Something to understand that the fog database that lists the images is disconnected from the raw data file. You can move the image files to some place else, it won’t impact the FOG UI until you try to deploy a previously captured image.

        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!
