Fog Doesn't copy all Partitions
-
@Uncle-Frank gotcha I see it now. Didnāt realize it through the text.

@Uncle-Frank
ālist-devices only shows /dev/sda/
how do i upgrade to trunk ?
BTW unfortunately i do need the dell recovery in my image
-

so ive upgraded fog to trunk
created the image and the host and everything
started the task, it copied 2 partitions 100% but on the third partition it stoped around 58% and sudenly died
and shown on the screen that : http://postimg.org/image/4bl20riq7/
thats how the task progress looks like : http://postimg.org/image/4mjxwjlgf/
and really ā¦ its in a midle of the last partition ā¦ -
Interesting. This definitely should not happen in the middle of partclone running. Did you actually see partclone closing in the middle of reading or do you guess it did because it looks like it in the web interface?
Please follow this guide to make sure FTP is working properly: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_FTP (especially the section on passwords)

@Nox245 Is there enough free space on the Fog Sever?
df -hCentOS defaults the
/directory to have 50GB. -
so ive seen the whole process this time and it actualy gets to 100% and it has a complete image of the disk,
it says its done uploading the image bot i dont really have it in the server hereās a pic: http://postimg.org/image/6xmtu1izr/
@Wayne-Workman
yeah it has enough space for the image, i got 67gb free space on the server and fog sees it. the whole image is about 52gb.
@Uncle-Frank
ive changed the passwords in /opt/fog/.fogsettings and in Web Interface -> FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings -> TFTP Server -> FOG_TFTP_FTP_USERNAME & FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD
all the passwords are the same and the error still shows like its trying to use some random passwordā¦ i rebooted fog before trying the imaging again. -

Goto storage management, select the relevant master node and look down the bottom of the screen. Ensure the proper username and password match your nodes credentials.

@Nox245 Tom is right, this is a FTP credentials issue most likely. NFS is used to upload the image to /images/dev and then FTP is used to move the image (once uploaded) from /images/dev to /images. the username/pass used for this are set in the storage nodeās settings area in the web interface. You must also have a matching user account on the actual linux box with FTP permission. The installer does all of these things for you, but changing things can goof them.
That troubleshooting ftp article posted by @Sebastian-Roth below gives steps on how to correct this.

ok so ive changed all the passwords on the server to 1 password and now it is all working
thank you all very much and have a great day
