Command-line switches

Clone switch usage

The number of size switches depends on the number of partition sizes that you want to specify. There may be none.

Switch

Explanation

 

 

n=xxxxM

Indicates that the nth destination partition is to have a size of xxxxMB

 

(for example, SZE2=800M indicates partition two is to have 800 MB).

 

 

n=mmP

Indicates that the nth destination partition is to have a size of mm percent

 

of the target disk. Due to partition size rounding and alignment issues,

 

100% physical use of disk space may not be possible.

 

 

n=F

Indicates that the nth destination partition is to remain the same size on

 

the destination as it was on the source. This is referred to as fixed size.

 

 

n=V

Indicates that the partition may be made bigger or smaller depending on

 

how much disk space is available. This is the default.

EThe sizes of all partitions remain fixed.

FThe sizes of all partitions except the first remain fixed. The first partition uses the remaining space.

LThe sizes of all partitions except the last remain fixed. The last partition uses the remaining space.
