Norton Ghost parameter four

I believe that everyone has seen a lot of Windows crashes and system crashes. The trick to quickly restore the system is to use the Ghost program, but you have to make a choice every time you use Ghost, which is too troublesome. In fact, Ghsot has many parameters. Cleverly using these parameters and writing them into MS-DOS batch software can bring great convenience to us backing up and restoring the system.

1. Automatic backup
Copy the codeThe code is as follows:
ghost -sure -clone,mode=pdump,src=1:1,dst=  

Back up the first partition information of the first hard disk to the current folder, and you can use it to restore it in the future.

2. Volume backup
Copy the codeThe code is as follows:
ghost -sure -clone,mode=pdump,src=1:1,dst= -span -split=630  

Its function is to back up the first partition information of the first hard disk into the current folder. If the generated one is greater than 630 megabytes, the generated GHO files will be divided. This parameter is very useful when backing up large partitions and burning them to a 650 megabyte CD-R.

3. Automatic recovery
Copy the codeThe code is as follows:
ghost -sure -rb -clone,mode=pload,src=:1,dst=1:1 
Its function is to restore the files in the current folder to the first partition of the first hard disk, and automatically restart the computer after the operation is completed without confirmation.

4. Backup with password
Copy the codeThe code is as follows:
ghost -sure -pwd,666888 -clone,mode=pdump,src=1:1,dst= 

The purpose of this statement is to back up the first partition information of the first hard disk into the current folder, and use 666888 as the password for the generated GHO file for encryption.
In the future, when using Ghost to restore files or using Ghost Explorer to release files, you must enter a password, otherwise the file cannot be restored or released, which plays a confidential role.
If you enter ghost -sure -pwd -clone,mode=pdump,src=1:1,dst=, that is, no password is included after -pwd, then Ghost will ask the user for the password to encrypt the GHO before making the GHO file, and you must remember it. After encrypting the GHO file, others can no longer view or restore our files at will.
