    • RE: Client capture issue (lenovo laptop)

      @quazz You’re right. Must have been a bad spot or something. One thing we all know Windows does is to add a minimum of two partitions on a clean install. Mine had 3 (ms system reserved, empty) partition. Did lots of research, found I don’t need three, just setup GPT with single partition, did base install, and now FOG imaging upload works.

      Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    • RE: FOG Image options when saving an image on a PC that has 2 hard disks?

      @Sebastian-Roth Gosh darn it, that worked!!! What ultimately was done was what you suggested. Someone else had suggested the primary disk change, that was removed. But there was also some custominit.xz or something like that listed as well, so I changed that to init.xz. Can’t believe it, but that worked! Now going to try and deploy this same image to exact same hardware on different PC. I’ll let you know how the deploy goes. Sebestian (and team) thanks so much for your hard work and diligence on this. -Jim

    • RE: Image menu not showing recently created images

      @sebastian-roth said in Image menu not showing recently created images:

      @Jim-Holcomb How many images do you have? I am not aware of a limit of images that can be seen in the menu but I can’t tell you for sure.

      So would you be able to delete an older one and see if one of the new one pops up in the menu?

      Hello Sebastian - I tried that - deleting older images. No joy. You know that the image menu just keeps going to the next number in order. I am currently at 160, but of course I do not have anywhere near that many images. Then menu goes to 158 then ends. Yet if I go to “List all Images” of course the image resides there with all of it’s available information, size, date, etc…

      I am stumped here.

    • RE: Image menu not showing recently created images

      @jim-holcomb I can deploy them manually from host, but not automatically from choosing the image from the menu. Not sure why they do not appear on the menu?

    • Image menu not showing recently created images

      I have created and uploaded two new images for deployment, but they are now showing up on the boot menu. Any idea why?

      DataTables warning: table id=dataTable - Invalid JSON response. For more information about this error, please see http://datatables.net/tn/1

    • RE: Fog stalls curing capture upload

      @sebastian-roth
      That’s true, but every time I upgraded either fog or the OS, something would break. I used to have the advantage of Tom Elliott being available to assist in these cases, but he never returns emails or phone calls from me in like nearly 2 years.

    • RE: Fog stalls curing capture upload

      @sebastian-roth

      Specific hardware you see this issue happening on? Make and model?

      We have mostly Lenovo machines; desktops and laptops. Stalls on both…

      Have you tested other machines/hardware to see if they behave the same?

      Yes laptops and desktops.

      Are Host (what you called fog client) and FOG server on the same subnet or connected across subnets through a router/gateway?

      The latter. For the moment, the Fog Server is connected across a vpn to another building…

      Tried connecting the host as close to the FOG server as possible (same switch) to rule out network components?

      Not yet - but thought of moving the fog server to this building, which is where my new office is located

      Linux OS and version?

      Ubunto 16

      FOG version?

      1.5.6.700

    • Fog stalls curing capture upload

      I have a strange situation happening. When I’m running the fog client uploading an image, during capture, it will run between 3 and 5 GB at a time, then stall for about 10 minutes then run another 3 to maybe 5 GB and then stall again for about 10 or 15 minutes and I just can’t figure out why. Anyone have any suggestions?

    • RE: Checkin failure?

      Well, not sure why this happened but I took the job out for the task queue and ran the image manually - this worked!

    • RE: Checkin failure?

      Sebastian, now the output looks like this:
      find /etc -type f -exec grep “date.timezone” {} /dev/null ;
      /etc/php/7.1/apache2/php.ini:; http://php.net/date.timezone
      /etc/php/7.1/apache2/php.ini:;date.timezone =
      /etc/php/7.1/cli/php.ini:; http://php.net/date.timezone
      /etc/php/7.1/cli/php.ini:;date.timezone =
      /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini.ucf-dist:; http://php.net/date.timezone
      /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini.ucf-dist:;date.timezone =
      /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini:; http://php.net/date.timezone
      /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini:date.timezone = America/New_York

      Still getting the checkin failure
