Afternoon fellow Fog users… I’m in the process of updating our multi site office to using Fog 1.2.0. I have 1 main site running a normal node and storage node on one subnet and 7 remote sites all on different subnets running storage nodes. I would like to use the main server in head office to house all the host and image definitions and be the command and control centre but have images stored on the remote storage nodes so the image files pull over the LAN not the WAN. Up til now I’ve been running standalone servers at each site but this means tweaking the image so it has the “local” fog server address in C:\Program Files (x86)\FOG\etc\config.ini I have already configured this part but think I need to enable TFTP service on all the remote nodes due different subnets. I’ve followed this post from the wiki: My issue is this step under 1.x.x heading… Edit the main /opt/fog-setup/fog_version/bin/.install.sh script. Locate the section titled # Storage Node installation . Insert the following line after configureFTP; and save the script: configureTFTPandPXE; On my Ubuntu and Centos boxes I have downloded the installer to /opt/fog_1.2.0 so I’d expect the above path to be /opt/fog_1.2.0/bin The script there is actually installfog.sh not install.sh and if I try editing that file it shows: #!/bin/sh script /var/log/foginstall.log -c ./.install.sh I can find the 2nd script mentioned in instructions ok: /opt/fog-setup/fog_version/lib/ubuntu/config.sh So either the instructions I’m reading are out of date or wrong or (more likely) I’m completely misunderstanding something. I’ve searched the current forum for Multiple TFTP Server but not found any hits. My question therefore is: Are there updated instructions for this under Fog 1.2.0? And I guess my other question is, is this still the best method for multiple site setup? Any other gotchas I should be aware of? I read somewhere WOL doesn’t work, is that correct? regards, Kiweegie. p.s. loving the new forum layout and Fog in general…

The FOGImageReplicator is run as a service not a cron job. Look in the /etc/init.d directory for the service descriptor. (next is going to be a rhel based command) Run the chkconfig FOGImageReplicator --list to show you if the image replicator service is set to auto start. Under debian based systems chkconfig may not be installed by default.

sry haven`t found this thread before.

Thx for this.

My workaround works only randomly, i think rc.local is the best way.
