First, thank for answering.
I have several computer of the same model and it works fine.
(HP 600G1 SFF, 2014 i think)
On a fiew somme of them, the boot PXE dont works.
The probem is hardware or from the bios, but after long hours to findout a solution a think that it is a hardware issue.
(the network card is off at startup while the bios configuration and all the parameters are the same that other computers for which it works.)

I’m pretty certain that problem don’t come from FOG.
So i decided to remove the Hard-drive of those machine to perform a image disk direclty from the server , using usb port and an external disk box. is-it a good idear ?
What is better choice ?

An other motivation, for clonig directly from the serveur, is that on some old machines, finding good option on bios,(boot pxe, legacy ipv4…) takes time. Having a way to deploy , on several disk , at very same time (like as multicast) seemed to me an nice option, am i wrong ?

Some Softwars do raw clonig , disk to disk, i could use it, but i was wonderong if i could deploy an image like this way wiht fog.

Sorry , many questions.
Precisely , how boot from usb stick and get accès to fog menu startup (deploy, quick registration etc …) ​

Hi.
Some computers makes me crazy because of an a tftp issue (Network card is old …)
So, for this pc, solution consiste to remove the hard drive , connect it to a similar computer (with good network card) and deploy image.
After thatt, i have to reconnect the hard drive to the right computer.

My question si simple :
From the serveur itself, is-it possible to déploy an image on a disque directly connected to the serveur by usb?
Thanks
Eric.

Hello,
I have a successfully installation with 100 computers, all was working, but ,

for some reson, i do a new installation (computer and server fog) .
I do an host import, (juste name and mac adress ! ) .
Now, fog client, installed on each client , do not responding anymore.

I still have an acces to the old server, so my question is:
is there any file, certificat or someting else on the old server that can solve my probleme ?

thanks,

Eric.
