      Is there a way to check the integrity of an image file? I have been getting CRC32 errors when imaging any computer and with any image I try. I checked the SMART data of the drive holding my images and it says everything passed. The computer I use as my FOG sever is older and needs to be replaced (my department was supposed to have ordered me another one by now but I swear a snail is after at doing things…) and I’m wondering if maybe the decompression of the image file on the fly is failing on the FOG server. The error that happens on the computer being imaged says

      pigz: skipping: <stdin>: corrupt -- invalid deflate data (invalid code lengths set)  pigz: abort: internal threads error
      

      Since it happens on every computer and with any image, I don’t think theres a problem with the image files themselves and the 1TB drive that holds my images isn’t very old either.

      I’m on FOG SVN 5680 running Fedora 22 Server. I just updated it to see if it was the software The last two SVNs I was on, which had a bit of versions separating them, had the error too. Every once in a while I’ll get a successful image process to complete. I’ve used the images many times with success each time.

        Well the fact that it happens on all machines would more so indicate a potential problem on the drive or the image was corrupted during upload originally. Of course i don’t know all the information.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          @Tom-Elliott The images have all been used a lot. I’ve used both old and new images. I took one of the machines I’m trying to image to a different site and imaged it there with no issue. The imaging process also fails randomly, its not always at the same spot with the same image. Tomorrow I plan on taking one of the images to a different site and seeing if that image works fine elsewhere.

          I also tried to image a known working computer and it failed there too.

            @johnomaz There’s a thing called data-rot that happens to old data, or data on old drives… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_degradation

            Just an idea…

            It could also be your network dropping packets… (far more likely). It could be a loose patch cable, a kinked patch cable, interference on a copper line that was ran a little too closely to a high-voltage inverter for florescent lighting. If your copper lines run close to HVAC or larg-ish electric motors you’ll have a lot of interference too… Don’t have a microwave by the server do you?

              @johnomaz If you’re interested, it’s most likely very easy to do a basic MD5 checksum type thing in the evenings and pile the results up in a file in the web root for viewing in a web browser… it would be a crontab event.

                @Developers I couldn’t resist. I’ve been working A LOT with crontab and bash scripting lately! It’s super fun!

                It took my virtualized dual core VM running on SATA1 drives on an old computer a grand total of…

                8 minutes

                to produce a MD5 checksum for all files in my /images directory, which is a total of…

                18GB.

                More powerful systems can expect much greater performance.

                Here’s a command that will generate a file with the date on it for every file in /images. It puts the file in whatever directory you’re pwd is.

                now=$(date +\%m\%d\%Y);filename=checklist_$now.chk;find /images -type f -exec md5sum "{}" + > $filename

                Results should look something like this.
                cat checklist_12_08_2015.chk

                You can easily just append the file name to point to /var/www/html/md5 in order to start the command and then later view results in a web browser.

                The command can easily be made into a crontab event for root by simply finding out where md5sum is located on the machine and pathing to it directly. For Fedora 23 Server Minimal it’s here: /usr/bin/md5sum

                The command in a crontab event should therefore look like…

                if [ ! -d /var/www/html/checksum ]; then
                     #Make a web directory called checksum if it's not already there...
                     mkdir /var/www/html/checksum
                     chown apache:apache /var/www/html/checksum
                     chmod 744 /var/www/html/checksum
                fi
                
                now=$(date +\%m\%d\%Y)
                filename=/var/www/html/checksum/checklist_$now.chk
                find /images -type f -exec /usr/bin/md5sum "{}" + > $filename
                chown apache:apache $filename
                chmod 744 $filename
                

                That’s a script I stuck in my root user’s home folder here: /root/checksum.sh you have to make it executable obviously (after it’s created) with chmod +x /root/checksum.sh

                The crontab entry for root to do this every day at 10pm (overkill) would be… 0 20 * * * /root/checksum.sh and for the 1st of every month (recommended) at 10pm, it would be 0 20 1 * * /root/checksum.sh

                (in Fedora / CentOS / RHEL, to create a crontab event for root, first switch to root withsu root and then execute crontab -e and add the entry)

                Sample output in a browser after the task ran for the first time:

                  @johnomaz if an old image on a different site worked fine or an image copied to another site wouldn’t that raise more suspicion in the disk storing the image has some problem with it? Failing randomly would also lean more towards an escalating problem (one that isn’t fully prevelent right now) and indicate more of an issue on the device they’re currently stored? If it failed every time in the same spot, I would say the image is corrupt, but because multiple systems pulling images from this particular device and the fact the failing happens at different points still looks to me like there is a problem with the disk the images are currently stored on.

                    Another thing to test would be the memory on the FOG server.
                    From experience, undetected memory errors can lead to the symptoms you describe, i.e.random fails of CPU/memory intensive operations.
                    If this were the case I would also not be surprised if you were getting strange errors reported by the OS, e.g. sigsegv

                      @Tom-Elliott I’m currently copying the images off the 1TB to a brand new 3TB drive as a backup. I’m going to look at the MD5 checksum info Wayne posted below after the copy goes through.

                        Bumping this thread, I feel it has real utility for comparing files across storage group members. When I write the wiki article on it, I will gear it towards that.

                          Just posting what I’ve worked on this weekend. This is not finished, the backend-script is not CRON ready yet and there is no installer yet either.

                            I’ve updated one image at home since I started tracking the checksums, I have interesting results…

                            For those that are interested, here is the complete table output:

                              Looking at the results, I’ve concluded that replication did not happen for the /images/Win7/d1.mbr file.

                              And, I have either I have a corrupt HDD or replication transfered incorrectly for the /images/Win7/d1p1.img file.

                              The /images/Win7/d1.minimum.partitions is also of concern.

                              I’m going to delete everything in the /images directory of the slave node and let everything re-replicate and see what happens…

                                  I’ll be working to convert this project from shell-script to pure PHP, I’ll be developing in PHP 5.5, but I’ll also ensure compatibility with PHP 7.0. I’ll also make a much nicer front-end. I get a little better at web GUIs each day I think.

                                    Bumping this, converting the integrity checking stuff to PHP and going to try to work out a plugin for it.

                                      Got the PHP version functioning. Just need to polish it up and work out how scheduling is going to work.

                                        Update on this project, @Tom-Elliott has taken the PHP backend and integrated it partially into FOG Trunk. It’s available as a plugin, but not fully functioning just yet. We still need to create scheduling for it. Tom has already written a way to display everything in the checksum table, and a way to export those if people wanted to use a 3rd party app to analyze the results if they wish.

                                        I’ll be writing some intelligent code that will analyze the table’s contents to display concerning entries. The analysis will follow some basic principals.

                                        • Makes decisions based on data in the DB.

                                        • A storage group’s files should always match across all nodes in the group, both images and snapins.

                                        • Images shared between storage groups should always match between those groups masters.

                                        • If no image upload occurred between the last and current check, images are expected to match across that time period.

                                        • If an image upload does occur, the files are expected to change.

                                        Results of the intelligent analysis should display concerns, following the rules above, and the user should be able to “dismiss” individual file concerns so they don’t show anymore.

                                        The integrity table will have a column that will operate similar to the pending hosts column in the hosts table. blank or zero should be unchecked or false (bad or unprocessed), 1 should be good or dismissed.

                                        This column in the table will be administered by the intelligent checking, and by the user’s “dismiss” clicks. Once an entry for a file is marked as “good” by either no problems being detected or being dismissed by the user, that entry is forever good. If it’s blank, when analyzed it will be marked 0 or 1 respectively.

                                        I’ll be working on this as I have time.

                                        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!
