Hi everyone,
I am working with Mender Configure for an IoT project. It works perfectly on my “master” device, which I manually configured from a clean Debian installation.
However, I am running into an issue after cloning the OS image from the master device to other machines. While the cloned devices register with the Mender server successfully, the Configure add-on remains empty, displaying the message:
“The device appears to either have an empty configuration or not to have reported a configuration yet.”
I understand this happens because a configuration update hasn’t been triggered yet, which would normally prompt the device to report its current state. However, triggering a dummy update via API for every single device is not ideal for our manufacturing process.
Is there a way to force the device to report its current configuration to the server without performing a configuration update?
Thanks in advance!
