Prevents Ghost from updating the OS after a restore.
By default, Ghost passes information about the restore to Windows, which then makes
updates. This switch disables that function and preserves the disk exactly as restored.
Disables access to SCSI devices using ASPI. This is equivalent to -fns for SCSI disks, but
noscsi also affects SCSI CD writers, tape drives, and other SCSI devices.
Disables FireWire
Disables USB support.
Prevents Ghost from creating a volume SNAPSHOT.
Disables NTFS contiguous run allocation.
Sets the CHKDSK bit set on a copied NTFS volume. This causes Windows NT to check the
integrity of the volume when it is started.
Enables NTFS internal diagnostic checking.
Attempts to arrange the restored NTFS volume in the same way as the source volume.
Ignores the NTFS volume CHKDSK bit. Symantec Ghost checks the CHKDSK bit on an NTFS
volume before performing operations. When Symantec Ghost indicates that the CHDSK
bit is set, you should run CHKDSK on the volume to ensure that the disk is in a sound state
before cloning.
This switch forces Symantec Ghost to ignore the partition table system ids and instead to
check the partition contents when detecting NTFS file systems. This switch is useful when
the system id is not set to 0x07 for partitions containing NTFS file systems. The partitions
would otherwise be inefficiently imaged sector-by-sector. This switch can be used when it
is necessary to image a Windows NT4 FTDisk mirrored partition.
Take care when using this switch. Do not use the -ntiid switch with volume sets and stripe
sets.
To clone mirrored partitions (also known as Windows NT software RAID partitions),
do the following:
1
With Windows NT disk administrator, break the mirror set.
2
Using the -ntiid switch, clone one of the mirror partitions.
3
Resize as desired. Partitions can only be resized by Symantec Ghost during a disk
operation. When performing a partition operation, the target partition size must
already be established.
4
After cloning, recreate the mirror set using the Windows NT disk administrator. The
disk administrator creates the partitions in the mirror set.
Ignores NTFS log file check (inconsistent volume).
