I rebuilt the system. Everything is good to go at this time.

So after doing a FOGMulticastManager restart i was able to get multicast going.

Then we moved the fog server to its resting place and the service had to be reset again.

Is it common to need to do this every time the fog server reboots?

I ran a restart for multicast just now

When checking the status this comes up also.

Im having issues pulling the log as it says permission denied
Im logged into the admin account and ran a sudo ru
Put me at root with same issue using /var/log/fog/multicast.log
This is my Fourth day working with linux so it may be something simple im missing.

As an update:

Iv gone ahead and rebuilt our FOG client and allocated the space to fog without using a storage node.
I have casting/deployment in single form working just fine, but multicast is still an issue.
It will join the session but not start once the device joins. It just sits at the waiting to deploy screen.

(New installs fist time user)
Fog version: 1.5.7
Linux version: CentOS7
Machine: HyperV- VM

Storage Node also set up with same versions.

What is working:
pxe boot to fog from client.
Storage node is active.

Issue:
Cannot capture or deploy image without running the SmartInstaller. Once smart installer is installed everything works but Multicast.

Without SmartInstaller Capture:
Sits on screen stating: Unable to locate image store (/bin/fog.download) Args Passed:

Steps attempted:
Verified that both the username and password are the same for both FOG and FOG Storage
vi /opt/fog/.fogsettings
Verified that WebHost has correct configuration.
Permissions on image files set:
ls - laR /images
chmod -R fog:root /images

Multicast Issue:
boots to session then sits waiting.

Verified client number.
Verified port was enabled on firewall in initial server setup.
Tried other even numbered ports in rage of initial setup. (49152-65532)

Big issue is not being able to multicast and having to boot a PC then use the installer then reboot then use mac address to then deploy the image.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
