      When trying to multi-cast I get the following error
      Everything loads perfect then I get to
      Starting to restore image (-) to (/dev/sda1)
      Then a cursor comes on just blinking and nothing happens after that
      Have restarted the Multicastmanager but still nothing
      Hope someone can help with this problem

      Thanks
      Gary

        Sorry for not responding sooner.

        Please turn off any firewall you have on the fog server (sudo ufw stop or systemctl stop firewalld) and try again. Clear the multicast tables per the troubleshooting guide and then restart FOGMulticastManager with either service restart FOGMulticastService or systemctl restart FOGMulticastManager and try again.

        If you haven’t, please go through the troubleshooting guide posted earlier. If you’re still having problems, I can help around 4:30 PM CST via Team Viewer, please send me a message via the forums here.

        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!

                Hi Hanz
                Am running
                Version 8607
                SVN Revision: 5908
                Yes the Fog server is on the same switch as the 2 client PC
                Also in the Fog Multicast logs it says that there is NO Task Running
                but there is a atsk running so not sure what I am missing

                  Attached is the file you asked for funny it says no task found but yet there is a task there What am I missing? There must be a setting I did not turn on or missed during setup

                    @Gary-Kulovics Just to clarify the same broadcast domain, the clients are behind the same router as the server itself. Also wondering what version you’re running…I’m currently running SVN 8525 and can verify that multicast is working with node at location and server behind different routers, but Ip forwarding has been setup to allow the multicast broadcast. So in short if they aren’t seperated by routers it should be working on 8525 at the least.

                      @Gary-Kulovics Ok then. We need to troubleshoot further.

                      We need the multicast logs, they are here:
                      Web Interface -> FOG Configuration -> Log Viewer -> Multicast log
                      They will have timestamps. If you can’t find the logs of the try, just try to multicast again and some logs should appear. Be sure to wait longer than the wait time you set. Then copy/paste to here please.

                      There’s a manual test that you can do relatively easily to test multicast functionality. It’s in this wiki article, along with other troubleshooting that you should read through:
                      https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_Downloading_-_Multicast

                      Also, what OS is fog running on?

                        @Wayne-Workman said in MultiCast:

                        Is the FOG Server and the target hosts on the same broadcast domain?

                        Hello Wayne
                        Yes both Fog Server and host target are on the same domain
                        Before sending multicast did decrease the wait time to 3 minutes
                        Still getting the same result

                          There’s a multicast wait time defined in FOG Settings, I think the default is 10 minutes. That’s how long all hosts in the multicast task wait for all other hosts to be ready. You could just be seeing the wait time, or there could be a problem. Try waiting 10 minutes, or decreasing the wait time to something lower (like 2 minutes).

                          Is the FOG Server and the target hosts on the same broadcast domain?
