Hi, I wrote a little webinterface for my own purposes and I'm using fai-monitor to get the progress of the installation and to trigger post-installation processes(in my case, initiate opscode chef bootstrapping).
A problem I have, is that there are missing progress messages now and then. My first reaction to this is that I implemented a script, that is sending multiple "Installation Finished" messages to the server(in detail 9 times - 3 for 3 times with 1 second sleep in between). Unfortunately that does not work always. Seems that I have to implement my own - tcp-based - way to do it. I guess it might be caused in the fact that the messages are being sent via udp. And this may not be an error of fai-monitor but of my own daemon attached to fai-monitors stdout that is doing the further processing. (The "daemon" is written in php, which is not really designed to run as a daemon process). I have not verified that the messages are getting lost before or after processing by fai-monitor. Just wanted to let you know and asking if one of you has had similar problems.
