Just thinking out of the box here, but would be nice to have software deployments that can possibly use the host Tags as variables. One case may be using other IT Management software that uses location ID’s or machine ID’s that could tie installing the software needed to the ID.

RE: After Adding Storage for Images / deploy image mounting failedposted in General Problems
OK Confirmed its all working as expected. The Ultimate solution was the duplicate fsid=x issue.
Perhaps flag the wiki document on installing additional storage pools to ensure that the fsid=x value is not duplicated from a copy and paste. -

RE: Using Host Tags as Variables in Snap-Insposted in Feature Request
Host Tags can include items that might pertain to other systems. Take for example Labtech Software. They use a System ID as well as a location ID, that can be used to identify agent installers by, or if your integrating links you can use that for external management links that might include Remote Control etc.
Now to install the management tools I have to create packages that are specific to the location, download them and then upload into a snapin of Fog. That is unless I have a generic Agent installer that I can pass an argument to like setup.exe /AgentLocID=<FogHostTag>
