My Clonezilla server will NOT clone, here is the terminal output.

owner at Owner-Clonezilla:~$ sudo /opt/drbl/sbin/dcs

Now the clonezilla mode is: save-disk

Setting client as clonezilla-save-disk mode...Setting the TERM as xterm

*****************************************************.

*****************************************************.

Clean all the previous saved config file if they exist...done!

Client OS type when doing Clonezilla job is: nfsroot

start_ocs_service -t savedisk -o ask_user ask_user

clonezilla.lock dir: /var/lock/clonezilla

Warning!!! "range" option is found in dhcpd.conf, this is not a good way to
operate Clonezilla... It is better to let your DRBL client acquire same IP
address by setting MAC address in dhcpd.conf so that you will NOT overwrite
the OS of some unknown machines.

Press "Enter" to continue......

Starting the OCS service for node IP add. = 192.168.1.1

Starting the OCS service for node IP add. = 192.168.1.10

Starting the OCS service for node IP add. = 192.168.1.11

Starting the OCS service for node IP add. = 192.168.1.8

Starting the OCS service for node IP add. = 192.168.1.9

Setting the PXE clients to DRBL mode with label "Clonezilla: save disk
(choose later) as image (choose later)"...

Turn off all MENU DEFAULT in /tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/default...

Make "clonezilla" as default label in
/tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/default.

The MENU LABEL is "Clonezilla: save disk (choose later) as image (choose
later)"

Client jobs are logged in '/var/log/clonezilla/clonezilla-jobs.log',

*****************************************************.

You are in clonezilla box mode!

*****************************************************.

*****************************************************.

Now set up the client machines to boot from PXE or Etherboot (refer to
http://drbl.sourceforge.net for more details). Then boot the client to make
the template image! Note: If the partition you want to save is a NTFS
filesystem, it is recommended to defrag that partition first.

NOTE! (1) If Etherboot is used on client computers, version 5.4.0 or newer
is required! (2) If the cloned OS is MS windows, and it fails to boot with
an error message like "Missing Operating System" or "Invalid System Disk",
then you can try to (1) change the IDE hard drive settings in the BIOS to
use LBA mode instead of AUTO mode. (2) Or you can try to use parameter -t1
when restoring.

This is for all clients, so we remove other host-based PXE config files in
/tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/ and keep
/tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/default only.

Clean all the previous saved PXELINUX config file if they exist...done!

PS. Next time you can run this command directly:

/opt/drbl/sbin/drbl-ocs -b -q2 -j2 -p reboot -z1p -i 1000000 -l en_US.UTF-8
startdisk save

This command is also saved as this file name for later use if necessary:
/tmp/ocs-input-later-2011-08-01-16-34

done!
