Hi @Sebastian-Roth, I think I am miss understanding what I am reading and have it wrong, when I look at my images, there is a column “Image size on client” and this is the full capacity, but after reviewing my storage node, only about 15GB have been used. Is there a way for me to verify the captured image size and not the size on the client???

@sebastian-roth

The output is “Fully Decrypted” Unlocked…this is also happening with Ubuntu 20.04 images, and Fedora 33 images. It is capturing the entire 500GB HDD and not just the 30 or 60GB data section, in the earlier versions of FOG this wasn’t the case but now in 1.5.4 it happens with all images even chrome OS and any others I try.

Thanks for all you help, I am going to try maximum compression see if that helps.

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone might have some idea why all the images I capture weather Windows, Linux, Chrome OS is capturing the entire HDD not just the active OS. For example my latest Windows 10 capture was 479GB when only 77GB are being used and the rest is free space. I am using FOG 1.5.4 and none of the images have encryption enabled or anything. The settings I use is subject to the image I capture, for Windows I use (OS-WIN10, Single Disk-Resizable, Everything, Compression -6) For linux (OS-Linux, Single Disk-Resizable, Everything, Compression - 0) etc… I only want to capture the active disk partitions or space, I am using a ton of storage to keep these images and I would like a better option if possible.
Thanks

Hi George, the images get there when I upload an image into the web management console, it copies an image into the /opt/fog/images file and however when I delete the image from the management console the image still remains in the /opt/fog/images folder, now my question is, I want to put the image back on the console from the images folder, I previously deleted it from the console but it remains in the images folder. Now is there a way to copy it back from the images folder to the management console?

@george1421 Yes, you are correct. The images get in there when you upload an image to the managment console they are copied into the Default storage location.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can provide me some assistance. I am using FOG for my imaging and it is installed on a Ubuntu virtual server, my question is, on my management console I only have 4 images, however when I check the /images folder on my server there are other images in there. How would I upload or export the image in the /images folder to make it visible on the Management Console?

Thanks

Nothing special really, I just installed Virtual Box on my Windows Server 2012 R2 and installed Kubuntu Server on virtual box made it my 4th server/file server and installed fog and have been doing images for over two years.

If you have specific Specs you are looking for just ask.

Hi,

  Can anyone tell me what type of image file is created with fog? I tried to get the file extension on my fog server but no success, I guess what I really want to know if anyone can help is the previous person in my current role as IT Director user Windows Deployment Services for imaging and there are at least 17 .wim images can I upload these to FOG SERVER?

Any replies send to mark.fenton@elklakeschool.org I am new to this forum and not sure if I will receive notifications on responses.

Thanks
Mark
