      I have been paying with this for a bit now and was working through a scenario where the OS doesn’t get an IP so trying to statically assign one, at least temporarily. I wasn’t able to get it to work but I think it just needs a little more time to work on this scenario. Otherwise, this works quite well. I did some minor tweaks so that my end user only had to boot to the USB drive and after the cron job runs keep an eye on the screen for the IP of the FOG server which I echo’ed out at the end of the script using: printf “The IP of the FOG server is: $IP \N” > /dev/console

      I sent it off to a co-worker in another location and asked them to just plug in the USB drive, boot to it, wait for the message then try another machine to see if he got the FOG menu. He did and was able to register the machine with FOG and pull an image down so I’m marking this:

      SOLVED!!!

      I may try to go back when I have some time to finish hashing through the statically assign an IP if you don’t get one scenario…

      @Sebastian-Roth yes, the esxi host has a NIC on each network. I am attempting to get the network to allow access to an single IP in the management for each lab so I can just use the 066 DHCP option to point to the interface that works for TFTP which I believe is the way the guys that are doing similar setups are making it work.

      Sorry about the long intervals between posts. Just finishing up internal product training…

      SO… I did as @Sebastian-Roth suggested and was able to successfully take an image and push it down on a blank VM! I have not tried putting the image back on the source VM but thought I would report back that I am successful and appear to be all set.

      The take away from this is having 2 storage nodes on the same machine is not a great idea. If you run out of space, add a HDD and mount it /Images to add space.

      Thank you @Sebastian-Roth and @george1421 for your help and guidance!
