@Tom-Elliott

The group settings change in the update fixed the problem!

Thanks!

@Tom-Elliott

Awesome! Tom on that note, the multicast session I had problems with… Just took off! So… I jumped the gun! I apologize! Thanks!!

@Wayne-Workman

Ok this is bizarre! I restarted the servers, cleared the DB of non-essentials, stopped and restarted services. Everything appeared to be going well, until it got past the first two partitions. Than the session locked up at the last partition…

I tailed the log file and it showed this…

Any ideas?? I’ll be around until 5:30 PM MST this evening… Thanks!

@Wayne-Workman

No problem.

I will create a new post for the group problems.

As for the multicast issue, I have followed the Wiki on clearing the DB. That went smooth. I’ll retry this issue now. Thanks!

@Wayne-Workman

Unfortunately it’s still there.

How about adding members to a group? I can’t add any members to new or existing groups.

@Tom-Elliott @Wayne-Workman

Well I updated via SVN. Still have the issue. I’m also experiencing an issue reading the Dashboard disk usage. I can send you a screenshot of that if you’d like.

You cannot delete members of existing groups…

Also cannot add members to new groups…

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

@Tom-Elliott

So what’s the easiest method to update FOG?

@Tom-Elliott

Wed Jun 29, 2016 12:17 pm
Running Version: 8140
SVN Revision: 5698

Is that current? I don’t see any options under …

Fog Configuration > Kernel Update >> Published Kernel

@Tom-Elliott

K

@Developers
.
Any thoughts here?

@Tom-Elliott

My problem is back again. I tried shutting down and re-starting service but I’m hanging up again at the Particlone screen.

Ran this on both Storage Node and Server…

root@Fog:/# ps ax | grep udp
12432 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto udp
root@Fog:/# service FOGMulticastManager stop; sleep 5; service FOGMulticastManager start
 * Stopping FOG Computer Imaging Solution: FOGMulticastManager           [ OK ]
 * Starting FOG Computer Imaging Solution: FOGMulticastManager           [ OK ]

Also…

Tailed the Multicast Log File on Storage Node below…

I’ll be here all day. I’m working on imaging a lab. Thanks!!

Any suggestions are helpful!

Cheers,

Joe

@Sebastian-Roth
I’m off until Monday. Unfortunately, I had to deploy that laptop without imaging. I’ll have more to do though. I may be able to grab it later and continue testing. Thanks for the help!!

Cheers,

Joe Gill

@Wayne-Workman

Looks like it mounted.

I have a host that fails to start at PXE boot.

I gets to here…

This is a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with Windows 10 on it. I have imaged these guys before with Clonezilla so it should clone just fine. Any advice on this error would be super helpful!

Thanks!

Cheers,

Joe Gill

@george1421

Thanks!! You have been very helpful!

How about MS Office activation? Is their anyway to automate that?

@Developers FYI The Trunk ver. of the client works like a charm for Windows Activation! Thanks!!! You guys rock!

@Wayne-Workman

I did find out that the slow speed was likely from an old switch in that room. The other admin said we still have a 10/100 switch on that lab… So theirs part of the issue!

@Wayne-Workman

Well I was able to get my imaaging task done finally. I had 3 hang at the partclone screen and the rest took off. I ended up with 16 on this run.

Image Size - 48.52 GB
Total Time - 1 HR 11 Min Multicast

I started the download task on the remaining three when I started typing this via unicast on these 3.

Image Size is identical.
Total time - 7 Min

Two of the machines finished at the same time, just at that 7 minute mark. The last one is going about half that speed. This is still much easier and quicker than the alternative!
