@Seb77 this might be helpful. https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=CentOS_7#Continue_pre-config
The services are listed, and some UDP ports. This config does work.

@george1421 is this something we could add to the script?

@kduy1508 I wrote a script that fixes this, it will re-number the image IDs. Link is below. Very happy to provide this to you.

These OSs have been added to the daily installation tests. Fedora 30 has been removed. The CentOS project has not yet released an AMI of CentOS 8, so this is still not included in the daily tests.

Link to daily test results are in my signature.

So maybe set the default to InnoDB, and we think further on how existing installs can get onto InnoDB?

Wayne Workman

Is there any reasons why InnoDB isn’t the default database engine? @george1421 says it performs better.

Wayne Workman

@Arrowtron In addition to increasing your fog client checking time as was suggested by @Sebastian-Roth, and in addition to moving the database to InnoDB as suggested by @george1421 I’d recommend you go to 4 CPU cores.

I’ve looked over all of the posts in this particular topic. Perhaps I’ve missed it, but I don’t see FOG Server specs. How many cores? Core speed? Type of disk, like SAS2 or SAS3, SATA3, etc. Disk speed? Disk spinner or solid state? Amount of RAM? Size of Swap Space? Is this server a dedicated server? These things are important to know.

I think he’s talking about the disk wipe feature.

@Fog_Newb Send me your email address in a direct message (it’s the talk bubble in the top right), and I’ll get a wiki user created for you.

@astrugatch Ah good one. I see that @Sebastian-Roth has already updated the article. Thank you Sebastian for your speediness and pro-activeness, as always.

It’s working now for me.

Firefox hard refresh is Ctrl + F5. Still the same issues for me unfortunately.

The reply boxes no longer have page-scroll above the editing area. Also the ellipsis buttons on my posts for editing/deleting don’t seem to work anymore. Also, chat seems to not be working.

There is nothing wrong with the way you’re doing it. That particular wiki page is written the way it is because at the time, most people already had legacy booting setup on their DHCP servers. Back then, legacy network booting was much more common and UEFI booting were the edge cases. You’re welcome to update the article if you’d like (soon as the wiki is working again)

I’ve removed Arch Linux from the automated tests due to complications within Terraform. These issues were sort of the final straw in my Arch testing efforts.

The Arch community doesn’t supply an official AWS AMI. I had been relying on a privately built AMI that isn’t 1:1 with a manual Arch installation. For perhaps the last half year, my Arch tests were failing but the installer worked if you tested it against a manually setup Arch installation. This can only be due to differences between the AMI I was using and a manual installation.

The Arch community is vehement about only providing help if you follow their installation instructions on their wiki exactly. Because of this, when I asked for some help sorting out the issues, they were not willing to help.

Until someone with some Arch prowess can put some time into helping with this, Arch Linux will not be included in the automated tests.

@cammykool It can do remote execution, printer management, power management, login recording, and other things. I’ve used it to run scripts, deploy software, and other things. Check out these wiki articles below, they might help you understand the capabilities.

There’s also a ton of stuff on the forums about printer management. Here is one with some detail: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8051/printer-deployment?page=1 though there’s probably hundreds of topics about printers.

The CentOS project has yet to make a CentOS 8 AWS AMI available.
https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS

Still waiting on this in order to include it into the testing. Yes, I have thought about taking CentOS 7 and simply upgrading it. I don’t want to do that because I consider that being “not clean”.
