  1. Problem Description: failed to save the image using DRBL+Clonezilla with "later in client "mode, it works while I change the mode to "Now in the server".

  2. Test Environment
    VM1 : CentOS7.2.1511 + drbl-2.20.11-drbl2.noarch.rpm
    VM2 : CentOS7.2.1511
    VM3: no system installed
    3 VMs are in the same LAN.

  3. Test Steps
    step1: on VM1
    execute "dcs"
    All Select all the clients->clonezilla-start->Beginner Beginner mode:Accept the default options->save-disk->Later_in_client->skip checking/repairing source file system->yes,check the saved image->-p reboot->100000 ok

step2: on VM2
boot the system from the network
clonezilla save the image->Input a name for the saved image to use : 2016-08-18-08-img

It reported error like below:
Error! No existing disk(s) or no unmounted disk(s) are found! To use clonezilla to save or clone a disk, the source disk must exist or be unmounted! If you are sure the disk exists in his machine, maybe the kernel is too old?

then I enter the rescue mode on VM2, execute "cat /proc/partitions", I can see the partitions successfully.

    Because the tools provided by CentOS might not support some of the file systems you want to image, and if you are sure Clonezilla live or DRBL live work for you, I suggest you use this mode:

    Thank you, after I change to Debian system, it works well. So, that's the issue for CentOS system.
