Enabling legacy mode will fix this issue.

@george1421 Sorry in advance for not further testing this issue. I have had this issue before is why I have created the thread but my solution this time was simply reinstalling Ubuntu and FOG… I dont have an explanation as to why it works now but it does.
Anyways, thanks for your assistance!

@george1421 No, I simply called my account username ‘user’

Thing is I had FOG working perfectly before but since then I had to redo the setup I am using and therefore had to reinstall FOG.

Again, really appreciate the fast replies.

@george1421 Sorry for the duplicate picture. Here is the all storage nodes:

@Sebastian-Roth - To answer your questions, yes it is a new install of FOG, and it never has worked before. As for the install logs I am having trouble finding them. I am new to linux so bear with me please. Thanks for your reply though.

@george1421 Also here is the output of:
showmount -e 127.0.0.1
df -h

@george1421
Thanks for the quick reply!
I have gathered some screenshots. Hopefully I have everything you need to see.

Here is a list of all of my storage node:

Here is the configuration for my storage node:

Here is all of my storage groups:

And lastly here is my configuration for me HP_Windows7 image:

Here is a screenshot of the error I get after my image hits %100 captured.

“Invalid storage group
Could not complete tasking (/bin/fog.upload)”
What exactly does this mean and what steps should I take to fix this?
Thanks!

@george1421 Thank you for the response. The issue was the switch. I put a “dummy” switch in place of my other one and it worked. I ended up enabling fastport on my other switch and success. Appreciate the help!

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you for your advice. What you said seemed to be my issue. All I did was uncomment option routers and replace the IP with my DHCP server IP. I can get into the FOG splash screen now. Thanks!

@Sebastian-Roth I will uncomment the option routers and see what I can do. Thank you guys for the help. I will post my solution when I find it.

@george1421 The IP of my server has remained the same before and after installation

I have gotten my server to hand out the right addresses to clients. The only problem now is that when I try to PXE boot a client the pxe file is not found. It looks for the pxe file with the address 10.10.2.65 but it cannot be found. Any suggestions?

I looked over my config file and my range was incorrectly entered. DHCP services start now.

Okay so I have decided the best way for me to do this is to use my FOG server on the one interface and host DHCP on another interface. So I have set up DHCP on eno2 and FOG on my eno1 interface. Still the DHCP does not start.

My interfaces are as shown,

And my dhcpd.conf is as shown.

Awesome. Exactly the reply I needed.

Another thing I have had trouble with is in the past I tried editing that dhcp file but then after I did so, I did not get the FOG PXE boot anymore.
By default my FOG server is giving clients addresses on the same network as the FOG server and I need to change this without breaking it.
For example: A client will receive the address 10.10.2.6.
I need the DHCP to hand out addresses on my 10.10.222.0 network.

I will keep trying and report any issues I come across.

I have been asked to set up a FOG server with this setup:
Dell PowerEdge R710
Ubuntu 16.04 server

I need the FOG server and DHCP server in the same machine.
I would like FOG to handle the DHCP if possible. I have FOG installed and I selected the option to allow FOG to handle DHCP services.
My first question is, what exactly happens when I allow the server to handle DHCP on its own? What does it do differently if I were to select no?

With that being said, I was wondering if I will need to use another service for DHCP on the same machine?
