FOG server setup

  • Fedora 10
  • SVN of version 0.27
  • IP address:192.168.1.200 (using network manager)
  • Change computer IP address from 192.168.1.200 to 192.168.1.50

Change FOG server settings

  • Cancel any pending capture/deploy tasks Tasks > Active Tasks (Previous IP settings are embedded in task info)
  • Log in to FOG WebUI > about > FOG Settings
    • General Setting: FOG_WOL_HOST
    • TFTP Server: FOG_TFTP_HOST, FOG_PXE_IMAGE_DNSADDRESS
    • WEB Server: FOG_WEB_HOST
  • FOG WebUI > about > PXE Boot Menu > Save PXE Menu
  • FOG WebUI > Storage Management > All Storage Nodes
    • DefaultMember: IP Address
  • DHCP server configuration file (/etc/dhcpd.conf) restart service after changes are made.
    • Next-server 192.168.1.50
  • PXE Menu changes ( /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default)
    • Replace any previous IP addresses with new IP address

    • Example (no change to DNS):
      • Old line in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default:
        • append initrd=fog/images/init.gz root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=192.168.1.1 mode=quickimage keymap= web=192.168.1.200/fog/ loglevel=4 consoleblank=0
      • New line in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default:
        • append initrd=fog/images/init.gz root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=192.168.1.1 mode=quickimage keymap= web=192.168.1.50/fog/ loglevel=4 consoleblank=0
