![]() ![]() You will see the “Deploy Image” (old name is Quick Image or qi) menu where it calls the boot.php program once again but adds in the parameter qihost=1 You will see that the text behind the fog server’s ipxe menu is akin to a computer program. You can view the menu program behind the fog ipxe menu by pointing your browser to in the following example I’m going to use 192.168.50.23 as the fog server’s IP address. So when the nfs share is setup you will need to ensure that a user by the name of root can mount the share, this is typically done with a share level parameter of Ok now for the hacky path. ![]() The only gotcha here is that the FOS Engine (software that runs on the target computer) connects back to the nfs share (on the fog server or synology nas) as user root. There would be no replication between the reversed roles of synology nas and FOG server since the replication service only runs on a real fog server. You could then capture and restore the files from the synology nas only. If you were to change this storage group to an unsupported configuration, where the synology nas was listed as a master node and the fog server was listed as a storage node, then the roles would be reversed. (stick with me, I’m almost at the point). One way replication happens as expected master node to all storage nodes. So you would normally have a storage group with the FOG server as the master node, and then add additional storage nodes to this storage group, as storage nodes. This replication only runs on the master node or fog server. There is one way replication from a master node (fog server) to a storage node. You can not capture images to Storage nodes. ![]() Within FOG ecosystem, only master nodes (typically fog servers) can capture images from target computers. I have a older tutorial on how to configure a synology nas for a storage node. Is is possible to use a synology NAS or most other NAS’ that have nfs, and ftp support. ![]() The answer is its complicated but not impossible. ![]()
