Article under construction. Below, you will find notes / gibberish that I'm collecting to make into an article.


Multicast's roles in FOG

Multicasting in FOG uses UDPcast to send a single image to multiple computers using only slightly more bandwidth than sending the image to a single computer or unicast. Multicasting will be slightly slower than a single unicast task.

Testing Multicast

udp-sender http://linux.die.net/man/1/udp-sender




Inside the FOG DB, there are two multicast association tables. You can delete all the rows in those tables, re-install FOG, and try again.


mysql
use fog
DELETE FROM `multicastSessions` WHERE 1;
DELETE FROM `multicastSessionsAssoc` WHERE 1;
DELETE FROM `tasks` WHERE `taskTypeID` = 8;
quit

Check the status of FOGMulticastManager and restart:

Fedora:

systemctl status FOGMulticastManager
systemctl restart FOGMulticastManager

Ubuntu:

sudo service FOGMulticastManager status
sudo service FOGMulticastManager restart


Check that the interface setting for the image’s relevant storage node master is set to the actual interface name of that system. If not, change it and restart the FOGMulticastManager service.
