Copy an entire HDD

[ben.walker]

I finally got it. I had to turn UEFI Network Boot Stack on in the BIOS. It has now imaged the drive. The only problem I have is can these images be compressed in any way?

Thank you,
Ben

Yes, that is supposed to happen during image upload.
It’s the “compression” setting when you are creating/defining a new image.

@Wayne, I am under image creation the following is the only fields I see. I am currently running FOG 1.2.0. Image Name, Image Description, Storage Group, Operating System, Image Path, Image Type

Thank you,
Ben

The compression setting might be located in a different spot in 1.2.0.

Look around in FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings.

Is this it?

According to this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/3076/changing-compression-levels

Yes, that’s it.

9 is the highest setting and the original default, 6 is the current default setting in SVN.

Thank you, I am not sure my first image was 433Gig and my second was 45Gig. I did nothing different. I am glad to see the file size has decreased.
