compression option. (Optimize for Speed takes the least amount of time but creates the largest
image file. Optimize for Space creates the smallest image file but may take a significant
amount of time. Balanced is a compromise between compression time and image file size.)
Specify any advanced parameters, such as xpartition. If you want, specify additional
information in the Description (a description of the image), Machine Name (the computer on
which the image is being stored), Author (the name of the person entering this information),
and Comments (any additional comments) fields.
or
Enter the following:
img makel[pNumber] [comp=comp level] filepath [xpartition]
Parameter Specifies
makel[pNumber] The partition number (as displayed by img dump) of the local
partition to store the image in. It must be a primary FAT16 or FAT32
partition. This partition is excluded from the image that’s created.
If you omit the partition number from this parameter, the image is
stored in the local ZfD imaging (Linux) partition.
[comp=comp level]
comp level is the amount of compression used when creating the
image. Specify any number from 0-9. 0 means no compression. 1 is
the same as Optimize for Speed and is used by default if you do not
specify this parameter. 6 is the same as Balanced. 9 is the same as
Optimize for Space. See the paragraph in Step 1 for more
information.
filepath The image filename, including a .zmg extension and the complete
path from the root of the partition. The directories in the path must
exist. If the file already exists, it will be overwritten.
xpartition The partition number (as displayed by
img dump) of a local partition
to exclude from the image. You can repeat this parameter as needed
to exclude multiple partitions.
If you omit this parameter, all partitions are included in the image
except the one where the image will be stored.
Example Explanation
img makel8 /imgs/dellnt.zmg Takes an image of all partitions except the one in slot
8 and saves the image to imgs/dellnt.zmg in the
partition in slot 8. (Assumes slot 8 contains a primary
FAT16 or FAT32 partition.)
img makel /imgs/dellnt.zmg Takes an image of all partitions and saves it to imgs/
dellnt.zmg in the ZfD imaging (Linux) partition.
(Assumes the ZfD partition has been installed.)
img makel /imgs/dellnt.zmg x2 x3 Takes an image of all partitions except those in slots
2 and 3 and saves the image to imgs/dellnt.zmg in
the ZfD imaging (Linux) partition. (Assumes the ZfD
partition has been installed.)
