Appendix A:
Norton Ghost command-line switches
Ignores the NTFS volume CHKDSK bit. Norton Ghost checks the CHKDSK
bit on a NTFS volume before performing operations. When Norton Ghost
indicates the CHDSK bit is set, we recommend running CHKDSK on the
volume to ensure the drive is in a sound state before cloning.
-ntiid
By default, Norton Ghost copies partitions participating in an NT volume
set, stripe set, or mirror set using Image All sector-by-sector copying. This
switch forces Norton Ghost to ignore the Windows NT volume set partition
status and clone the partition as if it were an NTFS partition to allow it to
be intelligently cloned on a file-by-file basis. Care should be taken when
using this switch. Use of the -ntiid switch with volume sets and stripe sets
is not recommended. When cloning mirrored partitions, also known as NT
software RAID partitions, use the following procedure:
1
2
3
-ntil
Ignores non-empty NTFS log file check (inconsistent volume).
-ntn
Inhibits the CHKDSK on first NTFS volume boot. Norton Ghost
automatically sets the CHKDSK bit on an NTFS volume to force NT to
check the volume structure when it boots for the first time after cloning.
This is done to demonstrate Norton Ghost has left the volume in an
integral state and to detect if an error exists in the created volume structure.
We recommend that this switch is not used.
-ntx:y
Specifies Norton Ghost's NTFS volume memory cache to be yK in size.
-or
60
With Windows NT disk administrator, break the mirror set.
Using the -ntiid switch, clone just one of the mirror partitions, and
resize as desired. Note: Partitions can only be resized by Norton
Ghost during a DISK operation. When performing a partition
operation, the target partition size must already be established.
After cloning, recreate a mirror set using the Windows NT disk
administrator. The disk administrator will create the partitions in
the mirror set.
