Hi again,
I’m trying to capture an image on a fresh new installed physical machine…
I logged into the FOG Management and created an Image. Told the Image the OS was Windows 7 and set it for image type: single disk resizable and partition: everything
Boot the machine into the Fog Menu. Do a Full Host Reg and it shows up in the FOG Management as expected.
In task management when i click on capture image i get: invalid image assigned to host
Hey all,
I have installed fog and it’s working great with pxe boot. I’m now looking for a procedure on how to create a master image aka golden image. My enterprise buys OEM pc’s with preinstalled windows 7. This means that they have an activation key delivered with the image.
Now we don’t have VL keys but i do have found two Win 7 - MAK keys in our Microsoft License database. If i’m correct MAK is not the same as VL… Can i still use it though to create a master image and deploy it on OEM computers?
OK i get it…
Now for the part of the management console web interface page…
How do i login? I tried several password and usernames but nothing seems to work…
I don’t even remember where i have configured a username and password for this page.
I think i am. The fog client is what i call the fog server because we have to install the fog console on the server.
Debriefing:
1 VMWare Workstation (VM Host)
2 CentOS (VM Guest)
3 FOG Management Console (FOG Client)
So the FOG management console needs the same IPV4 address as CentOS?
Because George confirmed all three need different ip addresses…
@george1421
1.VM Host = leave network settings on dynamic
2.VM Guest = configure network settings on static
3.FOG Client = configure network settings on static
So if we set it up like this all 3 would have different ip addresses correct?
@george1421 said in Installing a new clean fog server:
And you are correct all three need different IP addresses.
I have setup centos on IPV4 10.2.3.207
When installing the fogclient i choose IPV4 10.2.3.208
I get a response in the terminal to open the management console on http://10.2.3.208/fog/management/index.php
Yet http://10.2.3.208/fog/management/index.php is not reachable…
But when i enter http://10.2.3.207/fog/management/index.php i do get the fog login page…
Ok looks like i’m kinda stuck here. I managed to install the fog client and have to visit the management console in my web browser 10.x.x.x/fog/management/index.php
I’m in front of the login page and can’t seem to login. Where the hell did i setup this login i don’t even know…
@george1421 @lmioperations @Sebastian-Roth
Can someone chime in on this?
Nevermind i managed to make the command lines work.
Can someone explain me which one and why i should activate the following?
Set SELinux to permissive on boot:
sed -i.bak ‘s/^.\SELINUX=enforcing\b.$/SELINUX=permissive/’ /etc/selinux/config
Set SELinux to permissive on the fly (this is not persistent, the above config must be done to be persistent):
setenforce 0
Having problems with entering the following command lines in centOS
echo “Open UDP port 49152 through 65532, the possible used ports for fog multicast”
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=49152-65532/udp
echo “Allow IGMP traffic for multicast”
firewall-cmd --permanent --direct --add-rule ipv4 filter INPUT 0 -p igmp -j ACCEPT
systemctl restart firewalld.service
echo “Done.”
FYI i’m not using putty but entering the commands in terminal of centOS.
Any idea why this is not working? I get the error command not found…
This is a step of the continue pre-config step from wiki guide: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7
Yep don’t mind me it’s just a infrastructural decision.
Thanks for the information.
The reason why i’m using VMWare workstation is to test it before i put it in our VMWare pool.
Once it’s fully tested and working by me i will put it on a VMWare server and manage it from the vsphere client.
Thanks, i hope i will not encounter too much problems during installation fingers crossed.
So if we set it up like this all 3 would have different ip addresses correct?
This is getting a little confusing mixing vm client and host…
This guide says clearly to setup the network of CentOS to static…
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7
The question is simple: can i use the same network addresses of my VM NIC on CentOS?
I have installed VMWare workstation player 12 and trying to install centOS for FOG.
Couple of questions regarding the IPV4 config…
When i choose bridged adapter in VM workstation do i have to change the ip address of that NIC to static?
When i setup the network settings of CentOS do i need to pick the same IPV4 address as the VM workstation NIC?
Ok i will download CentOS and install GUI then to setup my fog server. I hope it won’t be too difficult to follow as i want it to be setup asap.
Kind regards
