RE: FOG 1.5.10.1606 Time of captured image shows UTC time not local timeposted in FOG Problems
Thanks. I edited the php.ini under /etc/php/8.3/cli/php.ini and apache2/php.ini. I added
date.timezone = 'America/New_York'Under the [date] section, saving then restarting and it is still the same.

RE: FOG 1.5.10.1606 Time of captured image shows UTC time not local timeposted in FOG Problems
The one located in /etc/php/8.3/apache2 ?
If so under the [date] I’ve tried adding
date.timezone = "America/New_York"date.timezone = America/New_Yorkand just now tried
date.timezone = 'America/New_York'Saving and restarting each time but it’s still showing captures in UTC time.
Here is a screencap

Thank you

FOG 1.5.10.1606 Time of captured image shows UTC time not local timeposted in FOG Problems
Hello,
I have local time set correctly on the Ubuntu box and TZ INFO in the FOG settings is set to the correct tz. Is there another time settings I need to change?
Thank you

Any ideas how to resolve this? Nothing was changed on the FOG server since updating to the previous build.

RE: FOG Update errorsposted in Linux Problems
@Tom-Elliott Thanks, it seems to be sorted
Last night I did re-clone fresh. After deleting the /opt/fogproject directory then
I did
sudo git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git /opt/fogprojectsudo git checkout dev-branchThen ./.install - This installed the latest stable release
Just a few minutes ago, I did a git pull and some files were updated and when I ran the install this time, I got the latest dev-branch version: 1.5.10.1566

@george1421 @Tom-Elliott Something is going on with the repository/branches

RE: FOG Update errorsposted in Linux Problems
@JGeear Yeah something is messed up with the branches or something. I got that too. Tons of conflicts and a message about not a trusted repository or something. I figured it was on me because I had just restored a snapshot of the FOG VM.
I wiped the fog installer directory, in my case /opt/fogproject then I re-downloaded,
sudo git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git /opt/fogprojectset to dev-branch but it ended up installing the latest stable version: 1.5.10.1565
sudo git checkout dev-branchTells me - Already on ‘dev-branch’

RE: Error when deploying image - Checking Mounted File System... Failedposted in FOG Problems
Thanks Tom, that fixed it right up. I guess I overlooked that file when copying everything from the original /images.
Yeah, that fdrive number…
It is the serial number of the drive.The NVME drives initialize differently each time during boot. I guess that is a thing, so nvme0 would sometimes be nvme1. It was a mess. Then I learned drive size could be used to differentiate between drives under Host Primary Disk. Now that both of my NVME drives are the same size, I have to use the drive serial number.

Error when deploying image - Checking Mounted File System... Failedposted in FOG Problems
I’ve been able to capture and deploy images just fine. Until… mounting a 2nd hard drive as /images and upgrading to FOG 1.5.10.48 from the previous dev version. .mntcheck exits under /images/dev
I thought I had the permission set correctly since I can still capture… anyways, I’m not sure what to do.
The error message is attached

What do?
Thanks
update: SOLVED

Thanks George. No but I will now that I have time machine back ups. Can I use mac-boot to create the stick then just update those 2 things?

mac-boot - Will this be updated to accomadate T2 chips?posted in Mac Problems
Preamble
A while back @george1421 helped me create a bootable USB stick to allow IPXE bootinig my 2018 mini to FOG (I have all the T2 security features disabled in the mac BIOS no secure boot etc)
It was able to capture images no problem. I ran into problems deploying the captured images (to the same mac they were captured from). I guess it had something to do with the T2 chip. The image would deploy fine but would not boot the OS.
It started to get complicated for me and I decided to suck it up and just use Time Machine. I do not like Time Machine.
IIRC, since then T2 support has been baked into the Linux kernel and…
I just noticed this! Are there any plans to update it?

Thanks

RE: Backing up USB drive - blockdev --getsize64 then what?posted in General
@Sebastian-Roth
Unfortunately the USB external drive wasn’t see by FOG, I tried the serial number listed in Windows but it backed up an NVMe drivePlease disregard -
RE: Backing up USB drive - blockdev --getsize64 then what?posted in General
That is awesome. I tried using a power-shell command to get the drive serial number.
Get-PhysicalDisk | FT FriendlyName,AdapterSerialNumber,serialnumberJust to confirm, what this command lists as the Adapter Serial Number matches what Crystal Disk Info shows as the NVMe serial numbers as well as the serial number listed on the box the NVMe came in. Just to note, the SSD’s do not have an Adapter serial number
Thanks again for all you help.

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you so much.
Have there been any updates in dealing with dual NVMe drives that are the same size?

@Sebastian-Roth This is going to sound really dumb but I don’t know how to query FOS to figure out how the USB drive will be listed. Like to find out what /dev/???
