Good Morning, VincentJ, how do you image a Win 8 machine? The OS is not in the list so I tried other and it error’d out so I tried Win 7 and it error’d out as well, what do you have yours set on?

Good Morning All,

We will be getting some new Windows 8 machines in next week and would like to create an image off of one of them and deploy it to others, my question is we are using 0.32 and Windows 8 is not an option for OS ID, how significant is this option or is it just for the inventory reporting?

If we need to image Windows 8 with a newer version, what is the appropriate version to handle the task. Also, what are the steps to upgrade the existing FOG server so that I will not lose any of the data?

We are running Ubuntu 12.04.

Thanks!
Brent

Good Afternoon All,

On our Fog Server (0.32) we have an image that was uploaded that we have used 6-7 times without issue. Now when I tried to deploy the image this morning, it is saying Hard Disk Error - Can’t have Partition Outside of Disk! I tried grabbing another pc (all of which are identical in hardware except HDD size, get to that in a minute) and it deployed perfectly fine, went back to the other pc and had same error again. The first pc with the error had a 160GB HDD in it, I switched it out with a brand new 250GB HDD still got the same error. The one I grabbed off the floor had a 320GB HDD in it and it is perfectly fine. Went back to the original pc and put a 500GB HDD in and now it is imaging fine? The entire FOG server is only 200GB so why does it require such a large disk? The Image settings are set on Multiple Partitions - Single Disk, is it trying to duplicate the partition sizes of the initial machine imaged? If so, is there a way I can change that so that a 160GB HDD will work instead of requiring at least a 320GB?

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks!
Brent

Okay, I installed your kernel and everything appears to be working normal again, it is now getting me to the registration and inventory screen. The one thing I noticed through all of this is that now the bzImage file is back to the config looking file instead of just numbers on a sheet, see below…

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit. I am using Fog 0.32. Yes it was functioning properly until yesterday when I had to shut it down and restarted it this morning. I have not made any changes, it is running on a virtual machine in VMware.

Okay, how do I install the newer kernel?

Okay, I only have 0.32 so I shouldn’t have either one of those, just that 1 file that’s in there?

Any idea where my issue is coming from?

Good Morning All,

I tried searching the forum and couldn’t find anything exactly like my issue so I apologize if I missed it and I am double-posting.

I have a fog server and it has been running smoothly for about a month, I had to shut it down as a test for another thing in our environment. When I turned it back on this morning everything came up normal.

When I tried to do a full host inventory, it came back and gave me the below error messages (screenshots), after it sits at the screen for about a minute then the 2nd image happens and I have to hard boot.

In trying to research a fix, many people tried using different kernels, when I went to the folder with bzImage in it, I feel there is stuff missing, see below…

Everyone else I had looked at had some form of config file named bzImage and bzImage32.

Has anyone seen this before? Is there a way to resolve it?

Thanks,
Brent

God Morning All,

I had recently set up a fog server and was just playing around with it some to get everything figured out. I wanted to delete some of the images that I created as tests and when I did, I noticed that there is a folder in the images folder that is dev and it has similar file types as a normal image that I uploaded. Is it safe to delete this folder as well? I am trying to free up as much space as possible before I begin loading my images on there.

Thanks,
Brent

I am only running FOG 0.32
