Mount: mounting 10.10.3.171 /images/ on /images failed: permission denied.Error: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. Created a new image, pointed it to a folder within /images then tried to quick image but still getting: I have attempted to point the storage node at /images and given it the username/password of the 10GB virtual host as that is the filesystem it needs to access I think. I can now as a regular user, access, alter, delete files from within /images so the mount appears to be working. Where FogImages is the name of the shared folder in oracle virtualbox and /images is the mount point within the 10GB ubuntu host. Sudo mount -t vboxsf -o rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 FogImages /images I have stopped using fstab and found this command: Yer, I didn’t exactly think it was a problem with fog or the svn, more a ubuntu problem trying to line all the mount points/permissions. Then since the ubuntu desktop host (Fog server) is virtualised and only 10GB big, it can be copied/cloned easily and is held completely seperate from the image data store so if for instance the fog server goes down, we can just reboot a different virtual machine, pass the raid array with the images back through and all is well, likewise if the raid goes down, we just use a back up/rebuild the raid but you know your fog server itself is still functioning. Reason being, we have nearly 1TB of images as we use fog A LOT! So to become more stable, we built a new server, created a raid5 array for all the images to be saved on. The problem appears to be linking all this so that fog can read/write images from it’s /images storage node which just happens to be a raid5 array on the main server. etc/fstab: images /images vboxsf noauto 0 0Īll of the image subfolders from within /storage/images have mounted properly within the host /images.įog gui disk information shows the free and used space to be the same as the raid array. Called “images” and does not automount so solve previous problems. –I have set up a shared folder from within the virtualbox settings which shares /storage/images with the host. The server is running virtual box of which the host is ubuntu desktop. This is a copy of all of my fog images backed up from my old fog server, once again, I can at the moment access/delete all files within. This works perfectly fine, I can copy/paste files to and from this. Running a raid5 array - mounted at /storage. Ubuntu server (booting from a separate SSD): Bit of an interesting one that I’m trying to solve however there’s so many variables it’s a tad confusing so the set up is this:
