@sebastian-roth It sure is! 😸
But I love how flexible FOG is with its postinit and postdownload scripts and the API functionality.
I can really create everything I need, really things as complex as this problem here, by simple using the FOS binaries as building blocks.

I have to say that FOG is indeed an amazing product!

Ok I also found the answer to my search question:

The search syntax is slightly different to the news article.

So here would be an example command for completion:

curl -H 'fog-api-token: TOKEN' -H 'fog-user-token: TOKEN' -X GET http://FOG-PXE-SRV.mpi-dortmund.mpg.de/fog/host | jq '.hosts[] | select(.name == "HOSTNAME") | .name'

Thanks again for letting me do my inner monologue on your platform! 🙂

Best,
Markus

@Sebastian-Roth It did containing

@george1421 @Sebastian-Roth I just wanted to let you know that I moved to snapins and never regreted it for one second 🙂
It is indeed much more flexible and involves way less maintenance on FOG updates.

Thanks again!

@mstabrin Yeah, sounds like we found a good working solution for you. Great to hear that it did the trick.

Edit: I did rename the topic so we and others might find it more easily when looking for WOL.

@mstabrin Good to hear the BTRFS resize code is working for you! Thanks again for your work on this.

For a long time FOG would not move partitions if they were recognized as “fixed” because moving e.g. a recovery partition in the old MBR days would render it useless because of static sector addressing in boot loaders and such. Now as we all move towards UEFI and GPT partition layouts we have updated this logic to handle “fixed” partitions as fixed in size but not fixed in position anymore. For more details read this topic: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15025/move-partitions-on-gpt-layouts-need-people-to-test

I did a test with Linux partition layout having SWAP at the end and it was able to shrink it down and deploy to a smaller size disk: https://forums.fogproject.org/post/141373

To make a long story short, download the latest inits from our webserver (64 bit, 32 bit) and you should have this feature included as well as your BTRFS resize.

@mstabrin Ok that is the answer I just came up with. For every foreign subnet you will need to add in a new dhcp-range value.

Well done finding the solution. I also learned something new today too about adding multiple ranges.
