Command-line switches

-sze

Sets the size for the destination partitions for either a disk restore or disk copy operation.

 

When numbering partitions in the -sze switch, do not include the hidden Ghost partition.

 

See “Setting a destination size for the clone switch” on page 169.

-szee

Forces Norton Ghost to keep the sizes of all destination partitions the same as in the source

 

partition (no resizing).

 

This switch can be used with or without the -clone switch.

 

See “Setting a destination size for the clone switch” on page 169.

-szef

Forces Norton Ghost to keep the sizes of all destination partitions, except for the first one,

 

the same as in the source partition. The first partition uses the remaining disk space.

 

This switch can be used with or without the -clone switch.

 

See “Setting a destination size for the clone switch” on page 169.

-szel

Forces Norton Ghost to keep the sizes of all destination partitions, except for the last one,

 

the same as in the source partition. The last partition uses the remaining disk space.

 

This switch can be used with or without the -clone switch.

 

See “Setting a destination size for the clone switch” on page 169.

-tapebuffered

Default tape mode. Sets the ASPI driver to report a read/write as successful as soon as the

 

data has been transferred to memory. Useful when using older or unreliable tape devices or

 

sequential media.

-tapeeject

Forces Norton Ghost to eject the tape following a tape operation. If the tape drive does not

 

support remote ejection you must eject and insert the tape manually before further use.

 

Earlier versions ejected the tape by default. By default, Norton Ghost does not eject the

 

tape. It rewinds the tape before exiting to DOS.

-tapesafe

Sets the ASPI driver to report a read/write as successful only when the data has been

 

transferred to the physical medium. Useful when using older or unreliable tape devices or

 

sequential media.

-tapebsize=x

Specifies the tape block size in units of 512 bytes, where x is 1 to 128.

-tapespeed=x

Allows control of tape speed, where x is 0 to F. 0 is the default. 1 to F increase tape speed.

 

Only use this when the tape does not work correctly at the speed used by Norton Ghost.

-tapeunbuffered

Sets the ASPI driver to report a read/write as successful only when the data has been

 

transferred to the tape drive. (It is possible that this occurs before the data is physically

 

written to the medium.)

-tcpm[:slave IP address] The TCP/IP master mode switch causes Norton Ghost to go into TCP/IP master mode automatically, and is the equivalent of selecting TCP/IP Master from the main menu. The IP address of the slave computer may be specified. See “Peer-to-peer connections” on page 178.
