[quote=“DanielJay, post: 24805, member: 23088”]I decided to try downloading the image to one machine using unicast and that has failed. I am getting:
“Storage Node ‘DefaultMember’ is open, but has recently failed for this HOST
Unable to find a suitable Storage Node for transfer!”

I have since opened my /opt/fog/.fogsettings file and copied the value of password into the password field of my default storage node. I have also copied that same password into the TFTP settings on the config page.
After all of that was ran I restarted my NFS and TFTP servers. I am able to open up FileZilla and FTP to the FOG server using the fog user and that same password.

Any suggestions on this issue?[/quote]

Jaymes,
Any idea what might be causing this above issue?

Looks like r1403 now has an issue with TaskManagementPage.class.php.
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method Task::getCreateTime() in /var/www/fog/lib/pages/TaskManagementPage.class.php on line 120
I have added this back in from a previous revision and the task page loads just fine now.
Code that was removed from /var/www/fog/lib/fog/Task.class.php:
[PHP]public function getCreateTime() { return new Date($this->get(‘createdTime’)); }[/PHP]

BigMan99211,
Multicast should not have issues if you have the network setup correctly. It is best if you use managed network switches and can run IGMP on your network. This would prevent the flood of traffic to all network ports.

I checked to see if the service was running by doing a: “ps -e | grep FOG” from the CLI and it showed the service was running.

Jaymes,
When you were multicasting were you doing identical hardware or different hardware? What was your link speed?

I have 25 identical machines to image all connected via gigabit and a 10G uplink to network. I may end up doing unicast on these machines for now but would like to know if it is a FOG server problem or a network switch related problem.

I am having difficulties getting 0.33b to multicast images out. When I first started working on this it would load the partclone page and just sit there. I am not sure what has changed but now when I boot up the machines for a multicast job it sits at “Please Wait…”.

I have gone through the post of: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/wiki-troubleshooting-multicast.22/[/url] and ran the commands at the top of the page for udp-sender and udp-receiver. Not sure if the commands at the bottom still work for 0.33b for sending the image and receiving the image via CLI?

When I initially ran the udp-sender command the FOG server was on one subnet and the clients were on another. I could see the clients connect and receive the data that way even with a ttl of 1. I have since tried to change the server and clients to be on the same subnet just to see if my multicast routing was setup correctly and I am getting the same result.

Has anybody done multicast with 0.33b?

Great thanks! I have ended up doing so but wanted to find out if there was a “best way” of doing this.

When new revisions of the SVN for 0.33b come out, is it best to re-run the installer each time you update the SVN path?

Trying to find best procedure to make sure everything works the way it should.
