Thank you!

@sebastian-roth I see now, that the 5.5.2 ist very out dating.

Current is 7.01

Did you know which file and arguments I need for this?
cp /mnt/loop/isolinux/{rescue64,initram.igz} /tftpboot/os/RescueCd/5.2.2/

Both are in the 7.02 iso not available. Content of the isolinux:
-r–r–r-- 1 root root 2048 Dez 20 13:10 boot.cat
-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 432 Dez 20 13:10 isohdpfx.bin

Thank you!

@sebastian-roth wow, great. Thank you!

Hello,

I’m new with FOG server and ask myself if I can boot a kind of own Rescue ISO file?

So far as I understood FOG is for cloning images … but can I boot without changes also a live Rescue ISO?

Thank you!

@sebastian-roth great, thank you!

@tom-elliott hmmm … yes I have … you mean I just need to start the PXE task? I did not recognize that the host made automatic a reboot Maybe I need wait longer?

@tom-elliott Hello Tom,

unfortunately I need first the snapin and then the pxe.

Many PC´s are running and I don’t want to go to each and power down.

I thought I could force a restart and when he boot he do the other task

Hello,

I want to restart a group of PC´s for a new deployment or other.

Here my Problem:
I add a snapin to restart as a script. When I add this to the host, he restart in 1min … its working.

But I want before set a task for the PXE boot … but when I add later the snapin task, he delete the previous boot task.

Is it not possible to add more tasks to one host?

Thank you!

@george1421 Oh, thanks for the info. Is there a way to use an AntiVirus to check the HDD?

Hello,

when I install FOG Server … should the ClamAV Antivirus working out of the box?

He failed mounting path IP:/opt/fog/clamav

but folder clamav did not exists.

The Error is Permission denied … but guess it is not installed?
Thank you!

@sebastian-roth oh, ok Thank you!

@george1421 Hello!

ok, thank you. I have with this case now other questions. I don´t open a new post and asking here:

1. I deploy a group via multicast (12 PC´s). Unfortunately one PC (PC07) has an another HDD and this was to small. So all other 11 PC´s waiting for this PC07 to start the deploy. But PC07 never start and I need to cancel all.
   1.1 Is it possible, to cancel just one or more PC while the other are waiting? When I check PC07 and click cancel task … he stop the multicast and all PC´s are canceled
2. When I want to deploy a group … and some of the PC´s I want to exclude this one time … is this possible? He deploy always all PC´s and when I cancel some in the task, he cancel all (same as point 1)
3. Update the Windows product key: I deploy a image, where the product key from the master is set. sysprep I don´t used, because after the PC are nor started. When I manual set the new product key in Windows and click activate, it is working. Can I set this also with FOG? I can add the product key in the host settings … but when and how I can write this to the client?
4. While a multicast deploy to the 11 PCs, one was stopping (because of hardware problem) … but then all other 10 also stopping, because one of the PC was “lost” while write sda3 … can I manual delete this one problem PC, so that the other continue the multicast deployment?

Thank you!

All in all did the FOG server a great job and at least all 12 PC´s was deployed … but next time I want this faster, when I can handle the problems

@george1421 Hello!

Sure, no problem … from which PC you need to know the RAM?
Master VM: 1024MB
FOG server in Hyper-V: 2834MB

I try to capture again.

edit:
yes, error:

edit 2:
I set the Compression back to 18 … then he start capturing

edit 3:
until compression 20 its working here … 21 and 22 throw error

edit 4:
no, after some time, he reboots … maybe running out of memory … but now error while startup the capturing

@sebastian-roth ok, deploy is now running.

To set the timeout from 10 to 300 helps. The VM is waiting while the physical PC resizing /dev/sda2.

PC: 250GB HDD
VM: 10GB HDD

Both booting after deploy! Great

@sebastian-roth Hello,

capture is now running … sorry, guess it was my fault?

I thought to use the latest kernel … but the list in the kernel module is not sorted by the newest. So I install 4.19.143 … I see this now and install now 5.6.18

I also set the compression back … its now capturing!

Sorry for the second issue … I try to capture and deploy on the physical and virtual PC and check if with multicast the problem stil exists (physical is resizing and virtual continue deploy)

@sebastian-roth Hi Sebastian,

ok, this is a little weird … I try to capture again the Ubuntu Server 20 from my Virtual Box. HDD size 10GB.

Not possible … seems not enough storage.
But there are 50GB free:
Fog server:

Capture error:

I´m not able to continue in debug mode … when I press Enter: nothing happens

@sebastian-roth Thank you … here are the contents:

@sebastian-roth I did now the debug deploy and he show me: size to small.

So I set from 10GB to 14GB (Master has 10GB) and did a debug deploy again:

Then I delete the HDD in the VM and create a new with 25GB … same error.

@sebastian-roth

Both has 10GB HDD … I already deploy once to a VM … so this is weird.

I think between this I made on the FOG Server a apt upgrade.
