No fog does not support this, but you can use a sister linux product called clonezilla to do that. Clonezilla is similar to how the old GHOST imaging solution worked.

@george1421 Pffft…i’m there with ya brother. 😉

@dpotesta50 We can help you, it’s not too tough. We have step-by-step guides that literally list every command.

what device is providing your dhcp or proxydhcp services?

@george1421 My reference image is NOT 1709 and once attached to the domain that update has been blocked by our WUS. Too many problems with it.

nevermind

@dpotesta50 said in Question About Windows Licensing:

I see the area you’re referring to but wouldn’t that be the product key just for THAT particular one machine? The same key won’t activate every machine I pull that image to, correct?

Correct, and if all you have are individual licenses for individual machines, this is the ONLY legal way you have. If you had a MAK key, you could use groups to apply that to many hosts at once - but you don’t unfortunately, you just have Pro keys.

Here’s what I did for 100+ laptops, you need two people for this. One good at typing and listening, one good at reading and speaking clearly. One reads keys, the other one types them in. Yes, it will suck, better to get it over sooner than later. Also you’ll definitely want to backup your database when you’re done so you don’t have to do it again!

I remoted in with teamviewer and helped the OP get things working correctly. We had to ensure that the dhcp server only bound to the imaging lan NIC adapter and not both. We also found a nuance with ubuntu where it only wanted one interface up at a time by default. Once we had both interfaces up, fog installed correctly and like the OP needed it. Solving this case.

@wayne-workman Absolutely. As soon as I can I will.

@dpotesta50 I wanted to add to Wayne’s very important questions that we also need to know what exactly you see before the screen you posted the picture of. It surely is a blue partclone screen and it has the actual error printed. You need to take a picture of that!

@dpotesta50 (snarky: I did amend my original post to reduce the snark level).

The unattend.xml and setupcomplete.cmd files are something created by your previous admin to tweak your windows 10 build post image deployment with company/site specific settings. You may want to review these files to understand why he felt the need to do this. I can tell you its common practice to use the unattend.xml and setupcomplete.cmd files. So the short answer is yes you may need them.

If you don’t have them, and your previous admin used them, I can tell you how to collect them (assuming they are in your master image today). Take a computer and deploy your standard image to it, when FOG is done, power off the computer. Take the hard drive out and add it as a second drive temporarily in another computer. This will give you access to the media to collect these files.

well that really didn’t help readability at all.

But it looks like its a database issue. You might want to review this thread and see if it addresses the issue. https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10006/ubuntu-is-fog-s-enemy

Especially if FOG was working one day and its broken the next day without any intentional changes.

@dpotesta50 Look back at Sebastian’s post. It contains links to information on how to do this.
