Hparm ioctl

i meant like like the output of uname -r, distro ect

Try upgrading your Kernel. I was just having the same issue, but I was unable to image/register any host. Also check /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default and make sure all the web=“your web interface address”
-
I’m seeing “ioctl 0x304 failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device” while trying to register a virtual system running on Proxmox 3.0. I suspect it’s having an issue with the “SCSI Controller Type”. I don’t see a way to fake a standard SATA controller.
-
if there is no way to “fake” the sata controller, use the custom kernel guide to include the SCSI controller drivers that Proxmox uses. You may try the kitchen sink kernel before you compile your own, it will normally take care of most issues. I found with VMWare ESXi even including the drivers did not help, but I could upload just a slow speeds. If your drive can’t be found, your kernel is missing the drivers necessary.

Thanks for the response, Jaymes. I don’t see any current KS kernels in the update list. Is there an external source for them?
How would you go about discovering the correct driver to embed? -
Currently I’d start by harvesting the drivers required and adding them in.
I.E. Video card, NIC, any kind of ATA or RAID adapters, basically anything that FOG is going to NEED in order to process the host.
You can use older KS kernels to, you don’t JUST have to use the recent one, matter of factly some users find that the older version of the kernel works where as the latest does not.

Had nearly the same problem here:
[url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/host-registration-hdparm-ioctl-0x304-failed-inappropriate-ioctl-for-device.4494/[/url]No solution until now.
Tried to update or degrade the kernel, tested all SATA modes and it is remarkable that on the same computer with different FOG versions and different Ubuntu version I got one time no problems and the other I got that error.

Hey Sebastian. Thanks for linking to the other thread. What was the solution? Using a different FOG server? What is the difference between the two?

No solution until now.
- 0.33 Beta, Ubuntu Server 12.10 x86
- 0.33 Beta, Ubuntu LTS 12.04.2 x64
The second server does not work until now, installed out of SVN from 12. July. I have done everything like the first machine, configuration etc.
I tried to change the kernel, downgrade, upgrade, reinstall, nothing seems to work until now!
-
Thanks for detailing your findings. I don’t have the resources to install .33 right now so I will set this aside for the moment.

I’ve found that any time I’ve had the hdparm: ioctl 0x304 failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device issue, it’s not necessarily a driver issue, though it could very well be one. However, check your PXE file.
Make sure that the web part of the pxe server: does not look like this:
10.0.7.1/fogMake sure you add the trailing slash otherwise you’ll see this issue.
On the same note, make sure your FOG Settings Page :
FOG Configuration (? Circle Icon) -> FOG Settings -> Web Server section -> Web Root also has the trailing slash as this is used to create the boot file for the hosts when tasks are setup.Hopefully this helps.
