OK thanks! I really appreciate how active you guys are here!

@Sebastian-Roth It actually started working for us. I had it setup initially as “Only Assigned Printers” when it wasn’t working originally, save for 2 of the computers. The next day, I changed it to “FOG Managed Printers” though, and they all started showing up (without having to manually add a printer this time).

Driver was in the same place on every computer (the computers were imaged with it in place) so that shouldn’t be the issue. The logs may have been different because I have 12 computers, and each pair share 1 of 6 printers (which is why I’m wanting to use this vs AD). I wish I could figure out how to replicate the issue, but the lab is currently live and I can’t take it down for testing. If you want, I can try to work on it again when the labs are free in about a week though.

Alrighty Here’s a screenshot of the settings: https://imgur.com/a/BOFyJvG

Here’s a pastbin of the log for a computer that did have the printer added: https://pastebin.com/raw/WuyZYuc1
and here’s one for a computer that did not have it added: https://pastebin.com/raw/4Rb0Hzv6 - 3:10PM is where it looks like it added the printer, but it isn’t there.

For the second one (not added), I actually tried adding the computer first as I did with some of the others, and the fog client deleted it without actually adding the one I need.

I have what is a weird problem to me. I have a group of 12 computers (running windows 10 1903) that I have been using FOG to image, and the image goes fine. However, the printers I set up for them do not add right away. Fog is fully managing the printers, but the 1 printer I have added for each computer does not come up until I manually add a printer. The printer I add hasn’t mattered so far, but within 30 seconds of adding that printer, the FOG client removes it and adds the correct one. Is this normal/intended behavior? Should I add a random printer to my image? (does sysprep remove printers?)

Like I mentioned, FOG is fully managing printers. fog.log says the printer is already added before I’ve added the extra printer, even though it doesn’t show up.

I forgot to mention that I am still able to ssh into both boxes and the loads are well below 0.5

I’m having a strange issue where I can’t get a storage node working. My goal is to be able to do multicast for a remote lab, so my thought was to setup a second fog server (running centos 7) as a storage node and set that up on the switch in that room. I then wanted to setup locations and put those computers in a location with the remote node. So I did that (following https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Managing_FOG#Storage_Management) and suddenly I was no longer able to connect to the web interface on the master node due to a “Service Unavailable” error page. I figured out that I can get to it if I shut down the storage node, but if I bring it back up the error pages come back. I also get a large Service Unavailable in the image replicator log. Does anyone know what is causing this, and if fog actually works the way I’m hoping (I saw something saying storage nodes were used for speeding up unicast, but those were older messages so I’m not sure if that’s true or not anymore). Thanks in advance!

@george1421 Didn’t see any packets except for a single UDP packet every 2 seconds or so after the client checked in and loaded up into partclone. Turned out there’s some hardware issue with the server I had been using. Thanks for your help!

So I went ahead and installed fog and centos on a different (much older) machine and it worked fine. Looks like there’s some hardware issue with the original server I had been using, but that issue is not the NIC because I also tried a new one of those to no avail. Thanks for all your help @george1421!

Correct on all counts. Its running on a single switch on the same subnet. I did hook up wireshark and saw all the messages go back and forth with the initial test, but when running fog, the server just sends the one packet out and nothing else happens

@george1421 Did another full reinstall with a different NIC just in case and still nothing. Any chance the type of image taken matters? Partclone vs partimage? compression?
