Duhhhhhhh.
Thank you.
uoting Scott Williams <[email protected]>:
The red exclamation mark is not a show stopper, I've fogged a number
of labs with that showing. My guess is it's trying to hit a local
DNS to resolve my hostname.
You do have the Fog Client installed on the host machines,....right?
I've learned you CAN do imaging without the client , but then many
of the abilities like hostname changing is not available.
While on the host machine, go to http://FOGSERVERIP/fog/client/ and
install the FOG Client Service if you have not already.

Not here. I started 8 computers in a task for deployment and
walked away. Came back several hours later. The computers were
finished with the deployment and had rebooted but the hostnames
were not changed. I do have that it turned on. I tried looking at
the online manual but there was nothing. On each of my hosts on the
server's host list there is a red exclamation point - Unable to
resolve hostname MMS-GOLD-01. Any ideas?
Thanks.

First make sure it's enabled in the Fog Services on the server.
You probably did that.
Next, be patient, What I saw while imaging is that the client
will go through a couple reboots immediately after it gets an image.
It appears the dirty bit is turned on and it goes through a
complete chkdsk, reboots,
It then comes back up and if your lucky, you'll see a small
dialogue box come up saying it's going to change the hostname.,
reboots, then I think it will come up cleanly with the specified
hostnames.
This is what I've seen happen.

Does anyone have any experience with the hostname changer in FOG?
I have re-imaged a lab but the hostnames are not being changed.
Any advice would be appreciated.
TIA
