Could we have the web interface indicate that a storage node is correctly connected passwords match ect… maybe a green dot like the ping status when its added or listed in the all storage nodes list. A second indicator that all the images are in sync with the main repository.

RE: Added nodes, updated everything to 3429. Can no longer image.
Don’t forget that around SVN 3410 and up the storage node installer resets the storage password when run. It should display the new password at the end of the install.

RE: Issue with ftp_login on CentOS 7, FOG 1.2.0
As I understand it 4 things need to match the Operating system password for the fog user, the storage management password and username fog, the tftp password under the web ui in fog settings and finally the storageftpuser / storageftppassword in the /opt/fog/.fogsettings file. After they all match restart the fog services or just reboot the server.

RE: Win 7 0xc0000225 boot failure Acer travelmate P245-M
If the error occurs after you image the machine I really suspect you are having an issue with the hard drive partition table. When I ran into a similar issue we ran the windows repair on the newly imaged pc and then uploaded the fixed image which seemed to solve future issues from then on.

RE: change domain name to all register host
You could run a script task as a snapin drop the pc’s from the domain and then just change your AD settings in fog so they rejoin the new one.

RE: SMART Checking
While it doesn’t find all issues it is quick to check and will reduce issues with imaging a bad drive, I certainly haven’t see any false drive failure messages.

RE: Tips to new FOG server
It really depends on usage. How many clients, how many images, how large are your images, compression level, number of images sent at a time?

RE: Resize issue - r4600
I see it occasionally the simple fix is to deploy the image expand the partition and run fixparts if needed then reupload.
