Fatal Error: failed to mount NFS volume
-
It seems that you don’t have the rights configured. I also forgot one other security setting in the above post.

Make sure you do this for C:\images, and C:\images\dev
I will add for future reference.

Hi,
I have those security in place, but that didn’t solve the problem
At this moment I’m stuck at the following stage:- Checking Mounted File System … Done
- Using image blablabla
- Looking for Hard Disks …Done
- Using Hard Disk : /dev/sda
- Preparing bakcup location …Done

An error has been detected!

Unable to create /images/001aa0…

Open Terminal or SSH into your fog server…
Then mount the NFS if not done so already.
cd to the mounted folder. In my example it would be /images2
Just do a quick [CODE]sudo nano test.txt[/CODE]. Edit the file type in anything and save.
Then jump on to the windows machine and see if the file exists. Then create a folder using the windows machine.
See if you can see the folder in linux.[B]If you have any issues with this then there is a security/sharing/permissions setting that is incorrect.[/B]
-
Well, I can’t create or change anything in the mounted folder.
So it seems I’m struggling with a security/sharing/permission setting.I’m off to find some more information about NFS and sharing issues between Linux & Windows.

I’ve found the solution!
I followed the procedure at this site: [url]http://virtuallyhyper.com/2012/06/configure-windows-2008-nfs-share-vmware-esx/[/url]
and now everything works. -

Can you upload an image and then reupload on top of it? The case being to update the original image? or is that still untested.
-
Just a quick status update (and closure).
To answer Wolfbane8653: yes, it was possible. Everything worked.
I got everything working on the day that FOG released version 1.0.1
I think I was still high of the sweet victory, when I (later that same day) decided to ditch 0.32 and go for version 1.0.1
So I got version 0.32 to work and it was fully tested, but it has never been used.Instead I deployed version 1.0.1 and started from scratch again (I didn’t have any other option because the update messed up the whole system).
I ran into some new problems, but fortunatly the error messages in 1.0.1 are a little bit more detailed so I could fix everything. Since yesterday our new (international) FOG environment is ready to deploy. For those interested I will give a summary of our FOG configuration.Thank you all for your support. I will try to keep in touch on this forum, and don’t forget to have fun with FOG!
Our company FOG setup:
General network: we have multiple locations (in Belgium and The Netherlands) we are all connected in one big network.
Thanks to FOG we are now able to auto-install any computer on our network, no matter where they are.Location: Antwerp. This is our main site. The (one and only) FOG server is hosted here and the PXE boot-service comes from that server. This is a virtual ubuntu 12.10 that runs on VMWare. We also have a Windows 2008 server located here that functions as a storage node. The reason behind this is because of the backup. Backups are made on tape and our tapedrives / software are not supported in Linux.
Location: Schiphol. This is one of our two main sites in The Netherlands. A Windows 2008 server functions as a storage node. It is equiped with a tapedrive and makes a weekly backup.
Location: Amsterdam. This is the second main site in The Netherlands and has not yet been configured. This will probably become a virtual windows 2008 server, with backup possibilities on tape.

I tweaked a few more settings with the info you provided and mine is working correctly now also. Images upload on top of each other with out issues and this works perfectly.
[B]No need for purchased software! I love opensource![/B]

This is an interesting thread to me as it shows the flexibility of FOG. While cumbersome, it CAN be “ported” to run on nearly any OS.

As a quick update I have added this into the wiki “How-To-Guides”
