      try removing rpcbind and nfs-kernel-server
      then try to have apt install them

      I don’t know what else to work on then.

      try
      apt-get install rpcbind nfs-kernel-server
      or
      apt-get reinstall rpcbind nfs-kernel-server

      I don’t remember ubuntu’s method of on boot startup, I think it’s update-rc

      make sure both nfs and rpcbind are set to start on boot. Then I’d say try restarting the server, see if that helps you out at all.

      Don’t forget to restart the nfs services.

    • RE: Failed fog backup attempt still haunts

      When you setup the task before uninstallation, did your systems start uploading their images?

      I don’t know what else to suggest here.

      I’d check your server and make sure NFS server is running.

      Check your /etc/exports file to make sure it’s enabling the NFS Share to the correct shares.

      NFS requires RPCBind to operate, so check that rpcbind service is running then make sure nfs server is running and/or can be started.

    • RE: Bugs in FOG 0.33

      Ok,

      For now I’ve removed the OS Association Field, and create new group menu from the submenu.include.php file, and for ease of use I moved submenu.include.php from:
      {fogwebdir}/management/include/submenu.include.php
      TO:
      {fogwebdir}/commons/submenu.php

      I’ll post this file and the updated:
      {fogwebdir}/management/index.php

      Also, I’ll post the GroupManagementPage.class.php file.

      I’ll update my tarball as well with these changes so far.
      Inventory of simple changes:

      {fogwebdir}/management/index.php (just changed reference of submenu.include.php to submenu.php}
      {fogwebdir}/commons/submenu.php (this file has OS Association removed from Group menu. Moved file from management/includes)
      {fogwebdir}/lib/pages/GroupManagementPage.class.php (removed OS Association area, included parts for Image Association, and Removing hosts from membership field. Membership area, host names are links to edit host directly if needed.)

    • RE: Bugs in FOG 0.33

      I figured out the image association but I will not post the update until I work out the other sections a little bit. I think I’m getting to the point, that the only reason I have the includes folder is to reference these for the class building.

      I hope you guys don’t mind the time as I am, as the true developers, working a full time job with all of this.

    • RE: Bugs in FOG 0.33

      I’ve got a new kernel based on the core config for 3.10.7

      I don’t have a lot of hardware to test on, so please test.

      It can be downloaded from:

      [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]
      OR
      wget --no-check-certificate [url]http://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]

    • RE: Pigz abort

      Then the next question is … Is /storage a raid system with a possible bad drive? I don’t know what else to check then and I’m sorry.

    • RE: Pigz abort

      One last note,

      If you do end up changing the /etc/exports file, make sure to restart the NFS server.

      I think a simple:
      /etc/init.d/nfs restart
      will do the trick.

    • RE: Pigz abort

      Does your fog server actually use /storage as the location for the images? Or is it the typical /images directory setup. If it’s /images, it’s trying to use your root system (120G) to store more than that worth of data which would fail. A bypass to that would be to move /images to /storage then link /storage/images to /images which could be done with->

      mv /images /storage; ln -s /storage/images /

      You wouldn’t have to make any configuration changes then. The other thing to check would be the /etc/exports file to see what your NFS system is trying to mount to store the image. My guess is it’s actually mounting /images even if your configuration is pointing to /storage

      To fix that, you’d simply change the file reference to /storage and /storage/dev (assuming that’s how your system is setup)

      Also check your .mntcheck files to see that they exist. They don’t actually contain information, but they need to be present. Make sure they exist by typing:

      touch /images/.mntcheck; touch /images/dev/.mntcheck; touch /storage/.mntcheck /storage/dev/.mntcheck

      chmod -R +x /images; chmod -R +x /storage

      Of course remove the items you don’t need as I don’t know what your particular setup requires.

      Then try again.

    • RE: Pigz abort

      From the sounds of it, your storage node is full which would explain why it stops imaging at, very nearly, the same point every time. Maybe try adding some storage space, if you can, or add another storage node that has the space available on it.

    • RE: FOG and More than 10 Unicast Clients

      Try this:

      In FOG Configuration
      Choose FOG Settings
      Look for:
      [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]FOG_QUEUESIZE and change the value there.[/COLOR][/FONT]

      [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]Then, just to be on the safe side, go to your config file and make the change at:[/COLOR][/FONT]

      [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]{fogwebdir}/commons/config.php[/COLOR][/FONT]

      [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]Look for Like:[/COLOR][/FONT]
      [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]QUEUESIZE and make the change there and save. You should be set to have more hosts imaging.[/COLOR][/FONT]

    • RE: Bugs in FOG 0.33

      Alrighty then,

      I finally got groups, sort of, working.

      So it’s just like the old method for now where when you’re looking at the list of hosts, you can create your group and add systems to a group.

      I can also add, under the group management icon, a link to create a new host directly from there. I haven’t, however (sorry guys) figured out how to add a host to a group from within the group management system. Though, if patient enough, I might be able to figure out a way to do so.

      The Groups listing doesn’t display naturally. Simple fix, edit the css file. Open up:

      {fogwebdir}/management/css/fog.css

      Search for the line: action-box, there are 3 of them.

      In the first line of action-box, there is a place that say’s, display: none

      Set it to :

      display: hidden

      Then you’ll be good to go for creating and adding systems to groups the method we’re all used to.

      I’ll update my fog package, but also post the changed file here as well. It’ll be a few for the tarball to be updated.

      Inventory:

      {fogwebdir}/management/css/fog.css
      {fogwebdir}/lib/pages/GroupManagementPage.class.php

      The GroupManagement part is fully working, but I wanted to give some semblance of operation in this. The membership options current work which didn’t even after I updated my fog.css file.

      EDIT:
      Tarball is up and running. I may need some help getting the Associative parts of Groups to work: e.g
      Image
      Snapins Add and Remove
      Service Settings
      AD
      and Printers.

      OS Association is there, but there really isn’t a need as we don’t need it for the hosts anymore. I’ll look into what else uses it and remove it as needed.

    • RE: Pigz abort

      Can you try a system with a smaller image/partition table? Maybe even a different system altogether? This will let you know if it’s the system, or your fog server that can’t handle the issue.

      Also, are you sure you have 1.2 T available? This sounds like your storage location is full.

    • RE: Pigz abort

      Something odd looks to be happening. The Image File size says that it’s only 3.97 GB, but the data that’s being copied is 173.88 GB? Does that sound right to you? It looks like it’s copying the image file size (3.97GB) then aborting the upload because it’s reached the file size. What if you try creating a new image with Multiple Partition, All Disks Non-resizeable. Then assign that image to the machine, then try to upload?

    • RE: Pigz abort

      So when the image is being uploaded/created, it tells you the size of the image upload. Is this Partition 2 the full size that it’s copying, or is there free space? Next question would be, what kind of Hard Drive is the 500 GB? Meaning, is it SATA/AHCI or SATA/IDE in the bios? Is it a Solid State, Solid State Hybrid, or regular Platter drive?

      This is important, as through some of my testing, I’ve found that, especially hybrid SSD, actually causes my kernel to crash because it can’t open a solid read/write stream to the drive. It keeps hanging and will give this pigz error anywhere between 2 minutes, to 10 minutes into the image upload cycle.
