FYI Purge didn’t work for me. just reporting back. Don’t want to hijack the thread so I’m just going to watch and see what we find out.

I’m trying the purge now. I will report back.

Perfect!! Done and Done.

So is this something that can be cleared out? Mines approx 400 gigs in it. I would like to empty this out and get this back if possible.

Roger that. Kinda of what I was thinking.

So basically I want to create a external drive that a client could plug into the machine. Boot to it and it would deploy a FOG image. For example, lets say I have a client on a Vessel and they have messed up the system beyond repair. Anything could have happend. I want them to be able to plug in this drive, reboot the machine and boot to it, and it re-image the machine with the original image. Is this something that FOG can do?

Thanks in advance!!

@Sebastian-Roth Disk is good to go.

@Sebastian-Roth Interesting. The name through the web interface is Acer_DualBoot_Final but it says the location is /images/Acer.

@Quazz

Let me say that i did make a new Image name (AcerDualBootFinalB) and recaptured that one and it was right. Seems to be in the overwriting maybe?

not resizable.

So this is what I am seeing. I have my dualboot laptop that I fully update(Windows, program updates etc). I then recapture the image to the original name that is assigned to the existing image. For example my image name is AcerDualBootFinal. So when i recapture the image I just capture it to that name in the hopes that FOG will overwrite with the new data.

The issue I am seeing is that when I deploy said image to another machine, only the first partition has the updates, the second Is the same as it was prior to the update.

This is a single disk/ multi partition image due to the dual boot nature of the image. Compression is set at 2. I am running FOG 7881.

Anybody seen this before?

My bad. I see it’s pulling an address.

@EAHarvey My server will sometimes do this and not give address.

Reboot your server or restart your DHCP service.

@Tom-Elliott ok roger that. Thanks so much.

So I have updated this morning and it seems to be renaming correctly. What exactly was the issue?

@x23piracy 7597. Let me update and see what happens. I’ve not updated since we started this.

Still did not change.
