    The 2008 server is the storage node, which is defined directly with its @ip on a fog storage node/group

    This is not standard because the only storage location i have in my company (for IT service only) is a dell disk bay managed by Windows 2008r2. We have a netapp managed by unix too but no NFS licence, and no IT datas on it so, i’m forced to use this configuration ! 😕

      it looks to me like maybe your ftp root isn’t right

        @arnaudrigole on the FileZilla server thing, at the CLI, go to your images directory and issue the pwd command. What does it say?

          Ok that explains why things are not working!! I started setting up how to do this with Server 2012, but ran out of time. The root of your issue is that you need to install FTP on the Windows storage node to move the files. This guide should get you started: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6941/windows-server-as-fog-storage-node-reboot Understand this is for 2012 but 2008 is very similar. I used powershell for the copy and paste reasons.

            @george1421 Yup. You’re exactly correct. It’s also worth noting here that FileZilla is un-necessary. Windows Server has all the necessary components available already.

              I’m sorry, i don’t understand what you try to say me … 😞
              Wayne, what is the CLI? whats the pwd command on a 2008 server?

              George, i followed this guide to setup the nfs server, but the powershell commands aren’t the same on 2008 and 2012, i adapted it by search on microsoft an equivalent.(i stopped to follow the guide on that step, because i use FILEZILLA SERVER for ftp)

              I don’t understand my problem ; i need to install FTP on my Windows storage node more than filezilla server ?..

              It look very complicated, it works just with filezilla + nfs role , but it just can’t create the directory on /images…

                @arnaudrigole I thought your node was a linux node… You can disreguard. FYI the acronym for CLI is Command Line Interface.

                Also - I’m a purist. I will not install third party anything if the base-OS can do it natively. This solves a lot of maintenance issues, update issues, and reduces complexity overall.

                  i hope this is why you ask me:
                  i just opened a cmd, when type the following cmds:

                  c:\windows\system32> ftp 10.1.11.64 <-- windows storage node
                  ftp> use fog
                  331 password required for fog
                  ftp> fogpassword
                  230 Logged on
                  ftp> cd /informatique/Service_info/FOG/images
                  250 CWD successful. “/informatique/Service_info/FOG/images” is current directory
                  ftp> pwd
                  257 “/informatique/Service_info/FOG/images” is current directory

                    /informatique/Service_info/FOG/images

                    That’s your FTP path.

                    FOG Trunk supports independent FTP paths, which you need.

                          Ok i’ll try to snapshot my fog vm before upgrade, then try to upgrade.

                          Seeing that the early uses it generated more problems than I already was in , I preferred board on version 1.2 . I do not remember exactly , but it was impossible to automatically inventory a machine, it had to be done manually , and after it was impossible to launch any task.

                            Is it possible to copy/paste all .img files which are actually on fog local storage, on fog external storage and make em readable for fog webui?
                            Is it a procedure to transfer an image?

                              i don’t know if there is a procedure, per se, but you can move images to a new storage node. just copy the image (including the directory and all files in it) and update the image profile with the new location

                                @arnaudrigole I have some methods documented.

                                using lftp:
                                lftp -c 'open x.x.x.x; user UserGoesHere PasswordHere; mirror -e /images/TheImagePath /images/TheImagePath; quit'

                                using NFS:
                                mount x.x.x.x:/<remote directory> <local directory>
                                cp -R /mbimages/Optiplex9020UEFI /images/Optiplex9020UEFI
                                umount <local directory>

                                Using Samba:
                                mkdir /tempMount
                                mount -t cifs //x.x.x.x/ShareNameGoesHere /tempMount -o username=YourUsernameGoesHere -o password=YourPasswordGoesHere,noexec
                                cp -r /tempMount/ImageNameHere /images/ImageNameHere
                                umount /tempMount

                                using SCP:
                                scp -r /images/ImageNameHere root@x.x.x.x:/images/ImageNameHere

                                using rsync:
                                rsync -a /images/ImageNameHere root@x.x.x.x:/images/ImageNameHere

                                  I let you informed about my issue after upgrading to trunk.

                                      @arnaudrigole When you put the files in the correct directory FOG will see them. No need to index or anything!

                                      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)

                                      Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

                                          @Sebastian-Roth I think he’s talking about the image definitions, in the web gui.

                                          If the image definitions are not already there, and the old server was the same version as the new one, you can try to export the images and import them. Otherwise you must create the definitions manually.

                                          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!
