[quote=“The Dealman, post: 10049, member: 53”]I faced that same issue about 2 years ago now, i ended up deploying standalone fog servers at each location on cheap HW. I use filezilla to transfer updated images to them, i thought it was going to be a pain to management them all but it’s been great for me and the Level 1 & 2 guys[/quote]

Thanks for the feed back I think that is what I will look at but have 60 locations with very slow speeds so updating image will take some time and then the hardware might be an issue.

Hi everyone I am a big fan of FOG and have had a great time playing around with it and find it fairly easy to work with even though I have no background in Linux thanks to these awesome forums. But I now have a question I would like to pose. We have been using FOG for a little over a year now. There a many different locations within the organization but right now we only image at the main location. The network ability is not enough to push an image to our remote sites. I want to deploy storage nodes and or NFS file shares to give us the ability to image at every location. So now my questions.

1. When imaging from a storage node I know it downloads the boot file from the fog server. is that all the network resources it would take? Or does it still pull the image from the fog server along with the storage node?

2. If I setup a NFS does it act completely the same as a storage node?

3. is there possible another option I could look at?

Thanks in advance for any input.
