Troubleshooting

Clients do not appear

If you don't see the clients in the monitoring interface when they boot-up check the following issues:

I've not a X server to see si_monitortk interface...

Clients can be monitored also if an X server is not available, for example if you're connected remotely via ssh on the image server and you've not enabled the X11 forwarding. In this case simply look at the file /var/lib/systemimager/clients.xml. It's an XML, but the clients and the attribute names are quite nmemonic. You can periodically cat the file or write your own console monitoring scripts. If you wrote a nice ncurses or a console interface feel free to post the patch to the sisuite-devel list.
