@Tom-Elliott Hello, no problem
I’m now using the Persistent Groups plugin for now until I have more time to think deeper into the system in order to create my own plugin to solve my problem.

Nevertheless, thank you very much

Hello, no problem, I’ll try to describe it in more detail
Steps to reproduce

Create location

• Set location name

-Storage Group
Establish

• Storage Node
  Omit because Node is not yet created or exists

• Set Storage Node Protocol HTTP

• Use inits and kernels from this node True

Add

no error occurs

Location is created.

When you create another location using the same procedure, the previous one will be overwritten
no new location will be created.

This behavior only occurs if no storage node is stored.

I noticed this behavior because I wanted to create my location structure in the master before I created all the storage nodes.

I have now discovered that the problem is not the number.
it is because a storage node must be defined
If there is no storage node stored for the last location created, the previously created location will be overwritten when a new location is created.

Best regards

Hello, there is a github page for the Persistent groups plugin where you can read it and find hardly any information about this plugin

Hello,
How can I understand this? At this point I only want to see the snapins that are assigned to the group and not all hosts.

Isn’t it structured in such a way that the snapins from the group are passed on to the hosts

Hi, unfortunately there is nothing there except available snapins
Configured ones are not displayed there

I have already assigned snapins here once, but they are never displayed in the group itself.

I always only have the option to add snapins and never see which ones have already been added

Hello
There is certainly software that can do this better, but these usually have to be paid for.
and unfortunately our department does not receive the necessary funds.
That’s why we have to find other ways to do this

Basically, Fog works really well for software management.

Hello
We primarily use Fog for software management on the clients
This works relatively well, even if it wasn’t intended for that purpose.
We would still like to keep this as this function is very convenient for us.

You can certainly add the version number to the name.
I actually wanted to avoid this because I can’t guarantee that there might be problems here in Fog if the name of an assigned packet changes all of a sudden.

To the node status
I currently know that you can read this in the logs

One field in the dashboard for each storage node would be enough for me to operate it
what the status is

Example
synchronization
Ready
Error

If there are errors, you can read them in the log.

Thank you for the great work on this project

Hello, we currently have a fog network
1 master
and 4 storage nodes at different locations

these are expected to increase by 19 over the next few years.

The following things would simplify and improve the function.

Snapin area

Column with version number that is read from the .MSI, .EXE during upload or can be maintained manually

Snapin update date column

Dashboard area

Synchronization status storage nodes
or status in general

Hello, since I don’t yet fully understand the behavior of Fog, I see the following behavior as a BUG.

in the group area

There is no problem creating a group and assigning a client to this group

The problem starts after assigning snapins to this group.
The assignment works: the snapins are assigned to the clients but they are not displayed in the group itself.

I find this a bit confusing for the subsequent operation of software maintenance.
