Hi,
iam actually try to inform my self about the kernel, making them selfs and so on.
First of all i dont realize what kitchensink is?
Is it a own kernel?
or is it a tool to create an own kernel?
Has someone some light information about that? any useful links or something?

Hi,
i found something more:

[INDENT=1]where 3774771 is the number of 1K blocks. You can use “fdisk -l” on the original system to obtain the exact amount. However, I suppose you can obtain the rounded amount from partimage imginfo command and use an overestimated value;[/INDENT]

[INDENT=1]losetup /dev/loop0 image[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]where loop0 has to be replaced with a higher numbered device (loop1, loop2, etc.) if loop0 is already in use (you can also use the -f option to use the next one available);[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]3. create a mount point, e.g.[/INDENT]

[INDENT=1]mount -o ro /dev/loop0 mnt[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]5. and that is! You can now browse the files in the mnt directory.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]Note that steps 2-4 have to be done as superuser (root).[/INDENT]

Hello Yoda
I think there is one step missing, because:
So between 2) and 4) one has to restore the partimage image to this filesystem… right?[/QUOTE]
Can someone tell if these steps are correct and working?

Hi,
is there a way to extract single files and folders out of the image files?
[B]EDIT:[/B]
I found this on the net:
[QUOTE]partimage only copies used blocks so you need to restore to a device (in this case a block file loop mounted) – I have done this with FOG images as an experiment.[/QUOTE]
Do these using sudo/as root if required:
[CODE]1. gunzip image file (force suffix with -S “”)
2. partimage imginfo <imagefile>
3. dd if=/dev/zero of=<blockfile> bs=1024 count=0 seek=<size in GB10241024>
4. losetup /dev/loop0 <blockfile>
5. partimage restore /dev/loop0 <imagefile>
6. sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/loop0 /media/temp/[/CODE]
Will this work?

Hi,
[LIST]
[][I]my FOG Server has a external NFS share mounted to /images2[/I]
[][I]my FOG Server IP is 172.19.102.17[/I]
[*][I]i don’t use FOGs local Storage Node! my VM’s HDD is only 8GB![/I]
[/LIST]
i’ve workarounded this by editing the freenode.php in this way:
replace:
[CODE]define( “SPACE_DEFAULT_STORAGE”, “/images/” );[/CODE]
with:
[CODE]define( “SPACE_DEFAULT_STORAGE”, “/images2/” );[/CODE]
replace:
[CODE] // make HTTP request
$URL = “http://” . $Node[‘ngmHostname’] . SPACE_DEFAULT_WEBROOT . “status/freespace.php”;[/CODE]
with:
[CODE]// make HTTP request
$URL = “http://172.19.102.17/fog/status/freespace.php”;[/CODE]
Maybe using localhost instead of using ip address would be the better decision?!
Now i have the free disk space both for DefaultMember and my additional Storage Node:

Hi,
i translated everything in the messages.po but i mentioned there are some parts that are still in english. Is this because of missing translations or maybe a bug in my messages.po? :eek:
Some Examples:

[CENTER]>>> [B]The Other Information > FOG Settings HINTS are all translated but displayed in english.[/B] 
<<<[/CENTER]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/uqtGvy4.png[/IMG]
What are these misterious line numbers above 1303? There are 1303 lines to translate but there are line numbers in poedit above 6000 and so on… confused?! o_O
I’ve searched for strings like:
[LIST]

[][I]Transmit[/I]

[*][I]Active Directory Defaults[/I]
[/LIST]
but coulnd’t find any translation line for them.
Any clues? :rolleyes:

Hi,
after reading and more reading into the wiki and kb i found the solution. It was a missunderstanding of how FOG is working.
I didnt knew that there can be only one local storage node on each fog server! stupid me

Hi,
because i couldn’t find any prepared german translations for fog i bite into the sour apple and started my own one 
I use the following program to translate: [url]http://www.poedit.net/[/url]
[B]EDIT: @mod can you remove the: “started, help needed” part from the subject please?[/B]
The Translation has been finished and i don’t need help anymore!

Hi,
thank you for the information. How should i install FOG on a Storage Server? Not possible because the Storage Server has it’s own Operating System. It would be nice to have an option to tell that the freespace check also works with an additional local path.
Iam not using the defaultmember storagenode that is predefined, will this work if i disable the defaultmember and only have the additional mounted nfs share on another server?
If you say path …/freespace.php isn’t available that the check works like openening the url to the freespace.php file
on any additional storage node? Then it’s really no wonder that it doesn’t work.
[B]EDIT:[/B]
[B]Can someone tell me where i find the part in the php scripts where it will connect to anothers storage node freespace.php link? Maybe i can change the part in the script to let it check an additional local directory.[/B]

Hi,
when i change the storage node dir in the freespace.php from /images to /images2 the additional storage node free space is displayed correctly but not at the correct storage node the freespace from /images2 will then displayed for the default member.
So changing the path from /images to /images2 is working but why isn’t it working when i change the storage node in the webif dashboard?
Help please.
Hi,
i tried to finding an answer on the net but it seems to be a secret
Is there a meaning or is it simply a name? The simple translation to german? is it so easy?

Hi,
i’ve setup fog to use its default storage node and i added an additional storage group and within this a added a storage node that point to an nfs share like 172.19.102.6:/images, i also have this in my fstab as mountpoint /images2.
When iam in a shell on the fog server and i type mount i see that /images2 is correctly mounted i also can see the files and dirs in it. If i type df i will see the free space from all drives including /images2 but that information cannot be displayed in the fog webif i can so only cannot connect to xy for the default local storage this is working.
Which Method is used to check free space?
I thougth that will be nothing else then a local df or something but it seems not.
What are the possibilities why this doesn’t work? Any clues or ideas?

Hi,
iam trying since days and i feel much stupid!
If i setup a plain fog on an ubuntu 12.04 it works
i can make upload immediatelly or schedule them (scheduling then works)
At the moment i switch from local /images to another nfs server that i mount
to /images it only works if path is / instead of /images/ even when everything is
exactly the same like to local share.
After that immediatelly upload still work but scheduling is broken.
And for a damn it i don’t know why, the only difference is a nfs share on another
computer.
I will receive the iam not group manager messages in the log, but nothing changed
instead of using another nfs share with the same paths for the shares!
Then when i switch back to the local storage default node it will not work again, then
i receive messages about cannot connect db (even if nothing has changed)!
I cannot make a dedicated server just for fog with big hdds, we have a storage server
that i want to use and i dont unterstand why this seems to be so difficult.
Yes i have a running FTP server on the Storage server, everything is same i used
the same credentials the local ftp uses so i dont need to change the predefined settings
instead of ip.
Setting up another TFTP Server and using existing DHCP and DNS was a childs play against this!
Iam near the resignation.
