That helped! that and after talking to my boss and he telling me that he was trying out a new web filter on the subnet i had the server in… thanks a lot!

i have backed up my db in the web interface.

im not sure how to upgrade from 1.4.4 to 1.5

if i try this

git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git

it tells me fogproject exists and is not empty

if i go into the fogproject directory and try git pull it tells me Peer’s certificate issuer has been marked as not trusted by the user, and im not sure what to do about that. i dont use a proxy or anything.

while i was digging in my log files looking for the error you suggested i found that one of my nodes was down. on a hunch that that was causing some issues. i went and turned it back on and things seem to be back to normal. replication seems to be back online. i must have had something trying to replicate to the offline node and was holding it up. but that you so much for the response!

now im just stuck with the red ! saying no such device or address for all my hosts. any ideas?tasks perform normally so it doesnt appear to be a big deal, but id like to fix it if possible.

Description

I had A fog server and a storage node working and playing just fine together and it came time to expand out 2 more storage nodes. at the time i was running Fog version 1.4.x ( whatever came just before 1.4.4) and i put up the new nodes just after 1.4.4 released. which meant i assumed meant i needed to upgrade the server to the current version as well for it to all work together. the upgrade seemed fine with the exception of it always telling me that my hosts had no such device or address, but i let that slip since it was working well otherwise ( image replication replicated a couple images and host tasks were completing without issue) the day came for me to have to upgrade my original storage node to 1.4.4. since then. image replication has stopped working and when i click on Fog Configuration > log viewer its takes around 2 minutes to load the log, and if i try to change the number of displayed lines it hangs for a while again. and it also hangs if i try to go back to the home page.

im not sure what to do at this point.

@Wayne-Workman @george1421 thank you both so much. you’ve been incredibly helpful!

@george1421 Thank you! i guess in all my quick reading i came to the conclusion that server would replicate ALL the images to all the nodes that way. I will continue to build out this scenario and see where it takes me.

I apologize if the questions exists elsewhere, but i couldn’t find it quickly. I work in a school district with 7+ buildings and that many or more subnets for each of them. and we manage serveral images per building, utilizing the same image where possible. We’re trying to move away from Symantec ghost because its expensive and a all around pain to use anymore.

My real question is this:
id like to be able to keep all of my images in a central place for storage , and use a server at each building to deploy them, however in my adventures with fog, i have installed a server and a storage node and it seems to me that the storage node only connects to one server. Manually copying the image from a server to storage and back to a deployment server is a fine option for me and ive tried just copying the image manually ( through winscp copy paste) from one server to another but the image doesnt show up on the server it wasnt created on.
