    • RE: Windows 7 Deployment FOG- SAD2 Driver tool

      There were something about disabling SCSI (scsi0.present = “FALSE”) and put drive as IDE but i haven’t edit vmx file under Workstation 10 for a new image version so i’m not sure it’s something to check.

      I don’t understand what you try to do when you speak of P2V for HP home computers.

    • RE: Windows 7 Deployment FOG- SAD2 Driver tool

      This topic is still a bit hard to understand when i used SAD 2 for more than a year and now SAD 3 !
      I added to SAD a FOG configuration generator based on network IP and DNS suffix and a Windows OEM Activator based on brands but it’s far from perfection so i don’t use them anymore.
      But if some people are interested to improve my script, i can share them.

      To use SAD 2 or 3 in silent, you have to add the /S to the .cmd of SAD and run something like this in the “FirstLogonCommands” of the sysprep :
      C:\SAD3-130627\DP_Install_Tool.cmd /S

      There is no problem to keep this kind of image under VMware Workstation 10 even after making with an older version.
      Mine was made in 2013 and i keep updating it since.

    • RE: 0.32 storage with 1.x server

      I will repeat myself but in images management of it give the right size of the images.

    • RE: 0.32 storage with 1.x server

      It’s only on the main page that it doesn’t display well the size.
      When i link an image to an image file, it’s display well the size on server.

    • RE: Windows 7 without system partiton under Fog 1.x

      This is a short answer. 😛
      I tried to copy the rec.img.000 to the directory of my single partition windows and i have the same problem.
      It restore well the system partition but it still fail to restore the sys.img.000
      It says “funcs.sh: line 88: 3438 Aborted” and there is not log in status.fog

    • RE: Windows 7 without system partiton under Fog 1.x

      I come back to this topic after reading that you use a BCD from a generalized image.
      As this one should handle a Windows with a system partition and starting a sector 2048.
      Shouldn’t Fog also own the system partition instead of backing up it each time ?
      Shouldn’t Fog backup only data in the 2nd partition ?

      As Acronis can restore only data without MBR, after having test, I can remake a “generalized” Windows using only my single partition data and restoring it to the 2nd partition of a normal install.
      So, if i copy the image of the system partition from an other Windows (rec.img.000) and put it in the same directory of my single partition image, shouldn’t Fog be able rebuild it as “generalized” windows and put my single partition as 2nd one automatically ?

    • RE: This is not partclone image

      If it’s a 0.32 image, it’s partimage.
      Partclone is only used since version 1.0 of Fog

    • RE: Storage edition

      Even deleting the default node to avoid to use it when images2 node is active, fog keeps trying to use it.

      Jul 3 17:12:19 srv-fog in.tftpd[16789]: tftp: client does not accept options
      Jul 3 17:12:33 srv-fog rpc.mountd[1760]: authenticated mount request from 10.121.20.101:743 for /images2/dev (/images2/dev)

      edit :
      I find out that i had to put the main node in first in exports file and not second.
      Since it’s the same datastore, it will use the first it an access.

    • RE: This is not partclone image

      You need to enable FOG_FORMAT_FLAG_IN_GUI in General Settings and set image to partimage instead of partclone.

    • RE: Storage edition

      First i was think it was the created task as you said so i restarted it but it’s the same.
      In syslog it’s requested to mount the /images2/dev but temp data end on /images/dev and image end in /images.
      This is pretty crazy.

    • RE: Storage edition

      What do you mean by “exports file” ?
      I think this is what i missed because I had already made the dev directory, copied the .mntcheck with cp and set to 777.

    • Storage edition

      Hello,

      I have two drive on the same server so I have create a second group and a second storage.
      First storage was on the default “/images” directory and a second one was a “/images2” directory (mount on the 2nd drive).

      I planned to set the first storage display in list on “/images2” in the meaning to set it as main storage and not have to change storage when we create image.
      So, I have edited the storage (the one create with fog) to move it to a “/images2” directory and put the second storage to “/images”.

      When i tried to upload images on it, it’s says that it can’t mount “/images2/dev” on “/images”.
      So moved back to original conf : storage made by fog link to “/images” and new storage link to “/images2”.
      I upload fine image on the first one but i still have the error to upload on “/images2”.

      How can i set up my main storage to “/images2” or just make it work ?
      Do i have to edit Config.class.php ?

      Thank you.

    • Accounts and passwords in Fog

      Hello,

      I had lost TFT/FTP password so i looked in Config.class.php and i find out that it was empty.
      This is not a problem since i can keep it empty in fog web page.
      But i looked for storage password and this one was also empty but i can’t put an empty password in storages.
      I have find after this page : [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Password_Central[/url]
      where it said to reset server account “fog” password.
      So change it and put it in storage web page but not changed in config file.
      And it’s working so i wonder why there is a line in the config file for this.

      As i don’t understand everything i just put the same password everywhere (in config file, storage webpage and config webpage).

      Could someone tell me the links between all of this and why there is 2 places to enter the storage password ?

    • RE: Windows 7 without system partiton under Fog 1.x

      System was sysprep and i boot directly on live CD at next reboot so it should be fine.

      I think i have gave the version starting at 63s, if this change something for you, i can get the one starting at 2048 later.
