    @george1421 Again, just as you posted this, I found it in the wiki. I can now access the database from the node, I hope the graph in the GUI is soon to follow…

    Like open source community computing? Why not do it for a good cause?

      @fry_p Sorry I’m running just a little slow today. 😉

      Glad you have it worked out. The remote storage node doesn’t have its own database, it uses the Master Node’s database that is why it need remote access to the database.

      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!

        @george1421 I appreciate your help though. I’ll give the GUI time to catch up, or if it still doesn’t work, make another post. Thanks everyone!

          If it’s configured correctly, it should be immediate. Did you enable the graph for the storage node? Did you assign the storage node to the correct storage group and enable it? When installing the storage node, did you input the correct fogstorage password?

            I would now like to know @george1421 's method to changing the IP easily on the node for portability. I am ignorant to how nodes work and how hard it is to change the IP, so I am open to suggestions.

            back to this question, You’ll be relieved to know that changing a storage node’s IP configuration is very easy.

            Edit /opt/fog/.fogsettings and look for the ipaddress= field and put your new IP in it’s quotes. Then just re-run the fog installer on that storage node. This will also ensure you have the latest kernel and inits and required packages on this server too because you’re running the installer.

            Then in the main server’s web interface, go to Storage Management and find the storage node you need to change the IP for, and just change it’s address in there. Be weary of your browser’s auto-fill in this area, it will change the password in this area without you knowing.

              God, I’m striking out left and right. I changed the settings in /opt/fog/.fogsettings, but didn’t re-install, expecting the changes to be instant. What a dope I am…

              Thanks for the info on changing the IP of the node. That’s not too bad and you’re right, having the latest of everything every time would be good.
