Do you always do Sysprep, even if they are the same make and model? I have 15 machines and wondering if I should sysprep them first.

ok working on that now… Should I sysprep even though the machine are identical?

Issue with new machines I just purchased and that I imaged and deployed. HP Pro Desk 600 G3 machines, I took an image of the machine after building out the image.

They are running windows 10 pro.

The image worked successfully on the machines but unfortunately after a few days one by one they all start giving the attached error message.
Any help would be appreciated… Thanks in advance

Hello

I am having the same issue after upgrading to Fog 1.9 RC 9.

No Partitions Passed (is BitlockedPartition)

I have downloaded and added the ints but it did not resolved my issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

Ok awesome, that will work.

I would love to not do an isolated network but it seems that I will have an issue if I install the box with a static ip and then take it to another location I will have to keep changing the ip every new location correct? Also since they are connected via WAN how do I ensure it will pick up the right server every time. When I was testing storage node here at the HQ I was able pickup the storage node in one of the remote locations.

@george1421

Here is what I am really trying to accomplished.

I have a fog server working great at headquarters, as I mentioned before in a previous post need I to service some machines that are branch locations versus bringing them down to headquarters.

I tried to setup a storage node but the replication over this slow network has been a daunting task.

So I thought maybe I will make another machine with all the images from headquarters to take on the go to this remote location and create a small network to accomplish it to prevent pulling those images over the network.

So I thought about creating an isolated network of 5 to machines and just imagine this way till our network is up to part. Since the remote location has their own subnet I was thinking to have DHCP running so that they could assign ip address out with the new image server scheme. So, I don’t have to take apart of the existing network or keeping changing the ip to accomplishing this.

So I guess my question is now, does this make sense to do it this way or is there an easier way to tackle all of this.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello All,

I have an existing fog on my current network. I am considering changing it over to an isolated network.

The Isolated network will have DHCP windows server.

My questions are how to change my existing fog server over to the isolated.

1. Can I do this without losing all my images
2. Can I simply just change the IP address associated with Fog Server or are there other steps involved.

Will I still need to use DNSMASQ or ProxyDHCP and what is the best way to convert it.

@Quazz Well wanted to jump start getting that image over to the remote location so my staff can start imaging without waiting for the long replication time to finish over the 1.5mpls. I only want to move 1 image over to that storage mode.

Thanks I will check that.

How I change the service checks…

Is there a way to tell if the replication completed or what percentage it is at?

@george1421 I ran a replication overnight and was wondering is there a way to know for sure if the job completed. When I look at the log file I see the following. It hard to tell but the time on the log is off…

My last question is… Since this location is physically close is there another way to get the image to the storage node without replicating it over the network

@george1421 Thanks George… another question,

If I set a cronjob up in linux to start and stop the replication. Which process do I used to do this.
