Restoring a spanned file via batch file
Jan 11th, 2006 at 3:17pm
 
I would like to restore a spanned file via a batch file that doesn't prompt a user for the spanned file name.  This is my current batch file that I would like the ability to put a file name in that is needed as the spanned file, if this make sense!

Thanks

Ghost -clone,mode=restore,src=g:\kiosk\posiflex\5715\57RS41.GHO,dst=1 -sure

What goes wrong when you try to use the command line?

Whenever I restore a spanned Ghost image set, I usually do not have to tell Ghost where the next member of the set is--what problem(s) are you encountering?

How did you create the initial image set--default settings, or using any command line switches?

It will prompt you to select the next file in sequence, or allow you to browse for it.

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry didn't answer all your questions.  Used default settings and did this manually

Are all of the files in the same folder?

Just figured out the issue the other day.  The original creator of the file created EastSalesman.gho and when createing the span it was something like EastSalesman0001.ghs or something to that effect from what I here.  Well, the original file name was changed to ESales.GHO and the span to ESales.ghs because the users were unable to see all the characters in DOS.   When the span changed the name the program couldn't find the name.   Ghost doesn't provide any info that I was aware of to find the original name nor was i expecting it was changed.   So I re-compiled it and now it works as expected.  Thanks for all help!

Thanks for the feed-back--that was a head scratcher--but your explanation cleared it up  Wink !
