I got it working! I’m really uncertain exactly what it was that finally did it though
Basically I made the password for user ‘fog’ the same on all 3 machines. I then made sure this user/pass combo was the same for the mysql ‘fog’ user, as well as the tftp & ftp storage user/pass. So in short everything has the same login credentials across the board.
I also created specific grants for each remote user, e.g.
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'fog'@'192.168.xxx.200' IDENTIFIED BY 'xxxxxxxx' WITH GRANT OPTION;for each remote ip address.
Thanks to everyone for your assistance. Special thanks to Tom for taking the time to have a private chat session with me to help me get this figured out. You guys are awesome.
PS - Not sure how to mark solved on this forum…

OK so I’m left with a lingering issue now. I’m trying to deploy an image to make sure everything is working, but the image is only being pushed out from one of the remote nodes to a local machine over the MPLS, giving me a horrible transfer rate of ~ 80MB/min. Why would it not deploy the image from the local server? I’ve witnessed this system deploy an image in under 6.5 minutes. What logs should I be checking to figure this out?

Are you using the Location Plugin ? If so, double-check those settings. It’s really easy to orphan settings in there when you change things around. If you’re using the location plugin, maybe even re-configure it.

No, I’m not using the location plugin. Should I be? I had the impression that it was kind of abandoned/for older versions of FOG so I never actually looked into it.

OK well that did it. I installed the location plugin and now everything is back up to speed. I guess it just needed a little direction and I just got lucky on that first image I deployed to test the remote storage node. Thanks again.

It’s not abandoned at all. It’s in-fact the most important plugin of all.
Let’s figure it out. Where are your storage nodes? Are they separated by WAN links? Are they on different networks (different broadcast domains) ?

I sit on pages reading… you post fast, didn’t see your last post.
Glad you got it working.
