RE: Offline installation
@matthewadams12 If you have already installed fog, look at the /opt/fog/.fogsettings file particularly the “packages” variable
This should contain all the necessary packages needed to install on the server.

RE: img to iso
@professorb24 There is one way to make “image files” bootable.
That is to deploy the image.
Otherwise no… Not reailly. -
RE: Deploy and capture images remotely?
@gaemover9 The “mobile server” would provide DHCP

RE: Deploy and capture images remotely?
@gaemover9 There’s loads of documentation and methodologies.
You deploy it on site. All other things should have access from your routers/switches to access and relay the information.

RE: Deploy and capture images remotely?
@gaemover9 I don’t understand what the question is about.
Option 66/67 tells your machines where to look for PXE and what file to load from the Server.
Each location being different - that’s fine, each location would need to point at the 66/67 appropriately for that “location” to work properly.
The whole point of FOG is to us network booting to image devices. Because FOG uses a GUI web based interface, technically it can be “done remotely”.

RE: Error with after mdraid true
@tomynocker It appears to be using primary disk /dev/md0 instead of /dev/md126?

RE: intel I219-v big problem
@george1421 Just thinking outside the box as it makes 0 sense for it to be “just these network cards”
I suppose the “real” test would be seeing if outside of this room if the same problem happens?
I know not simple, but if you can move the whole room to an area where we know this issue doesn’t currently exist, and it shows, then it’s likely specific to this equipment. If it doesnt’ show up, it’s likely something specific to that particular room.

RE: intel I219-v big problem
@george1421 This sounds very similar to old old equipment?
Hubs vs Switches and the Hub is literally at capacity

RE: Update to 1.5.10
@bballmcoe Glad this is fixed and working, but can I ask why you were running the command with
sh installfog.sh
?I’m not aware anywhere in documentation that we tell people to do that.

RE: Limiting the number of hosts registered
@sopinv I don’t understand the why.
You can do a trigger in your database like this:
DELIMITER // CREATE TRIGGER limit_rows_trigger AFTER INSERT ON your_table FOR EACH ROW BEGIN DECLARE row_count INT; SELECT COUNT(*) INTO row_count FROM your_table; IF row_count >= 1000 THEN SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000' SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'Row limit reached (1000 rows)'; END IF; END; // DELIMITER ;

RE: i fail to install FOG
@nrey What version of Ubuntu are you running?
Have you tried rerunning the installer since?

RE: Configuring LDAP Authentication
@DBCountMan If I recall correctly, this is on purpose. It’s been a while since I looked at it, but we set LDAP users to a specific set of identifiers and filter those out of the view because things you can do with local users (change password, etc…) you should not be able to do with LDAP based users.

RE: multiple locations with fog servers
@xsibit666 We don’t have a specific procedure per say:
https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/management/web/storage-node/
shows you how this can be done. In high level at least.
What can you use:
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Location_PluginWhile the documentation is outdated, it’s relatively unchanged from version to version beyond keeping operationally.

RE: BSOD only after PXE
@jmeyer Some “drivers”, of which I’m guessing you’re using ipxe.efi as the boot file?, use a “firmware” injection methodology to load the device. This firmware approach can change - usually temporarily or until another driver forces the overwrite of that segment of the firmware ROM - cause a change.
I might suggest, changing the ipxe boot file to be card specific if possible. This should help prevent this flipflop sequence after booting.
Similarly, For this one device, does Exit Type: EXIT produce any better results?

RE: Limiting the number of hosts registered
@sopinv Deploying images, is exactly what the queue is for. Registering is just data entry into a database.
In what sense do you want:
“Only 10 computers are ever allowed to be registered on this server”?
That’s where I think we’re getting confused.
As for registering, again, this is data entry. What I think you’re asking for is, if there’s 10 tasks, and somebody else boots in, don’t allow registering the system…
The thing is the database isn’t that heavily used, so I don’t understand the “why” here.

RE: Uninstall Fog Client
@Florent For removal of the FOG Client, a connection to the server is not needed.
The only reason it’s needed during install is because it’s communicating to the fog server to get the certificates needed from the server. These certificates are not necessary to remove the software.
