@george1421 lol, tagged myself on accident on that last post.

@bartont126 This seems to be the error now trying to upload the T480. I haven’t tried another 7390 image yet. I’ll be doing that later since I have built a new one. There is around 411gb of free space.

@Quazz Got it, that makes sense. Thank you!

@george1421 Got it, thanks! Seems to be working as normal on the 7390 now which is good. Back to the T480. Though, the kernel is now updated to 4.19 but when trying to upload the image it would only upload around 250mb or so. I increased the compression rate from 6 to 8 (as this actually allowed it to upload once) now it uploaded to a typical image size of around 100gb but it’s back to saying no valid data. Now that I know how to clear that out I will do so. Any suggestions on how to get the no valid data to stop happening? ill go through my bios settings and make sure they’re correct real quick.

@george1421 So, I switched it over to AHCI… And it took an image! I turned it BACK to raid… OS would not load. Turned it back to ACHI… still wouldn’t load. So, i’ll have to image it in ACHI and leave it. What is the downside to running off achi instead of Raid… because i’m fine with changing the pc’s over to raid to take the image. but I really don’t know what the difference is or how to properly fix it. I haven’t had this issue before, unless the 7390s I’ve imaged before were on ACHI for somere reason

@george1421 Nice! Seemed to work. When I did the ls -la /images /dev the space said around 200gb… and went down to 12k. However, when I went to properties on my images folder it seemed to free up a lot, have arouind 500gb left at the moment.

The 7390 is currently in UEFI Mode/Raid-on. I have the option for Raid, AHCI, or Disabled. ’

@george1421 Alright, so I got it updated with the correct version. I’ll try re uploading the image now. So all those mac addresses are failed images… thus, its still taking up space, right? So if I delete those, it’ll free up the space its using? What is the command to remove those macs/failed images?

I’ve got a Dell Latitude 7390 Image that’s worked just fine for awhile but all of the sudden its saying Cannot find disk on system. Is that a bios system or something with a fog setting somewhere?

@george1421 Disregard my last… I didn’t read it in full. I’m super in a hurry to get this fixed so my mind is all over the place lol

Those aren’t coming thorugh as links to click on to downlload. I found this googling it, is this pulling from the same link? The article was from 2016 but I figured the links were probably updated with the correct version.

@george1421 Is there a guide on how to manually update the kernel without being on a network.

@george1421 Thanks you sir! So it does appear i’m on 4.11.0 kernel, very much behind. I’ll find the update and push it to the server now.

@george1421 1.What version of FOG? 1.4.4 – it has not been updated as its on an isolated network not connected to the internet. However, I can and probably should update as it’s behind
2.Is the target computer in uefi or bios mode? It is using UEFI
3.Does this computer have a built in ethernet adapter or are you using a usb to ethernet dongle? Built in Ethernet.
4.From a windows computer, if you look in device manager on a this model computer. For the network adapter what is the hardware ID? I need the vendor and model codes. This is a Lenovo T480 Laptop. Network adapter model I’m seeing is ‘Intel Ethernet Connection (4) l219-V.

What is frustrating is we already have a T480 image. This is just an altered image. We also use Lenovo M810z All in ones. Same situation, we have an image already but trying to upload a different image we continue to get the no valid data. It’s sucking down the space on the HD. The image we have for the T480 is 100gb… so, it’s taking 100gb of data off the drive, but its as if fog is like nah, we can’t see it.

Also - no errors during capture.
Finally, when running ls -la /images/dev I get

So i’m not really sure what’s going on now. It finally took an image. But now it’s stating ‘no valid data’ on the fog interface. What’s super annoying is we have several images of this same mode. Also - What’s happening is i’m watching the size of the hard drive (on the server) go down in size. It says it’s captured 110gb, but its ‘not valid data’. So when I try to use that particular image it says unable to find image.

Hi,
I am unable to deploy an image to my new Lenovo T590. Seems to work fine on everything else but for some reason i’m getting the follow error:

@wayne-workman Solid. Disabled fast restart and it worked. Thank you sir.

Solved

@george1421 Thanks for all your help, boss! My boss also appreciates it

I am trying to capture an image off an Lenovo All in One and am getting this error. I was able to get it to work earlier today on an Lenovo Laptop.

I apologize for the sideways photo. The image is upright on my pc but once I click upload it turns sideways.

Thanks!

@george1421 I actually just posted another thread as that’s what I thought the moderator wanted me to do. however, I will look into these few things and look for your thread on adding more space. My networking guy is taking a look into the rstp on the switch so hopefully we can get this enterprise switch up and going to increase our speeds.

Hi,

So on my server where I Ubuntu loaded the drive is almost full. Is there any ways I can place the images folder on a different drive within that folder? I can easily move the folder, however I know that fog is set up to point to the images folder. Is there a way that I can change the location of the images folder for it to point to a different hard drive on the server? I have an empty 1.7tb drive I can storage the folder on. I would like to do this rather than completely wipe Ubuntu and reinstall it on a bigger drive.

Thanks!

@george1421 So stp mode needs to be changed to rstp or whatever to fix the spanning issue? I’m using some cheap tenda switch I’m getting around 3gb/sec right now. Obviously the enterprise switch would be ideal. I’m definitely going to run into an issue with space. my Ubuntu is imaged on a patrician of only around 150gb. I have about 70gb of free space left on it. I have another drive on the server with 1.7tb of space. is there a way for me to direct the images folder to another drive on the server to maximize my space without having to re set up the whole sever?
