Sending status updates from headless device running automated clonezilla...
A partition and disk imaging/cloning program

I currently have Clonezilla live auto-deploying a device image without any user prompts to a headless device within a specialized system that runs a specific application. My team would like to be able to see the progress of the image deployment or anything relational to the status of the imaging from a separate device. The local LAN does not have any real network architecture, devices are three windows 10 client machines, including the headless machine and a switch.
Is there anything built into Clonezilla that could broadcast status data on a local LAN? If Clonezilla would not support this directly, is the status information of the image deployment stored in any specific log file? I know that you can run custom bash scripts within the command structure of Clonezilla. I'm thinking that I could potentially write a bash script to monitor changes to a specific file/files, then send the data to one of the other devices on the LAN.
Is this the best way to get the status data out to another device? Any advice would be appreciated.
Duplicated post. Let's focus on this:
