Dumps disk metrics information to the dump log file, Ghststat.txt. The file location can be
altered using the -dfile=filename switch.
-dd
Changes the path and file name of the dump log file created using the -dd switch.
-dfile=filename
The specified drive is not available in the file requestor dialogs. You can use this switch
with Ghost.exe only.
-disabledrive=drive
Specifies the number of hard disks present. Valid numbers are between 1 and 8. This may
help when the BIOS does not report the number of drives correctly.
-dl=number
Specifies a list of drives to search for span files. If a span file cannot be found, then the
drive letters in dlist are substituted one by one to look for the file on other drives.
For example, the command ghost -dlist=CDEFG instructs Symantec Ghost to look for files
on C, D, E, F, and G drives. The path remains the same.
-dlist=drives
Lets Symantec Ghost convert all FAT16 volumes to FAT32 volumes when the destination
partition to convert is larger than 256 MB in size. Ensure that the installed operating
systems can access the volumes that will be converted to support FAT32.
-f32
Lets Symantec Ghost resize FAT16 partitions to be larger than 2047 MB using 64 KB clusters.
This is only supported by Windows 2000. Do not use on computers with other operating
systems.
-f64
Limits the size of FAT16 partitions to 2047 MB.
-fatlimit
Creates a CRC32 file, Ghost.crc, while creating an image file.
See
“Using the -CRC32 switch”
on page 157.
-fcr
Preserves the signature bytes on the destination disk when performing a disk-to-disk or
image-to-disk cloning operation.
-fdsp
Clears the signature bytes on the destination disk. This is the default for disk-to-disk and
image-to-disk operations.
-fdsz
When an extended partition is created in a disk-to-disk or image-to-disk operation, the
femax switch ensures that the extended partition takes up all free space.
-femax
