filebackup
include:[names]
Files and folders to be included in the backup (comma
separated). For example:
--include:'/home/bot/ATIESsafe.iso,/home/bot/ATIW.iso'
exclude_names:[names]
Files and folders to be excluded from the backup (comma
separated). See the above example.
exclude_masks:[masks]
Applies masks to select files to be excluded from the backup. Use
the common masking rules. For example, to exclude all files with
extension .exe, add *.exe mask. My???.exe mask will reject all
.exe files with names consisting of five symbols and starting with
“my”.
exclude_system
Excludes all system files from the backup.
exclude_hidden
Excludes all hidden files from the backup.
restore
harddisk:[disk number]
Specifies the hard disks to restore by numbers.
partition:[partition
number]
Specifies the partitions to restore by numbers.
target_harddisk:[disk
number]
Specifies the hard disk number where the image will be restored.
target_partition:[partition
number]
Specifies the target partition number for restoring a partition over
the existing one. If the option is not specified, the program
assumes that the target partition number is the same as the
partition number specified with the
partition option.
start:[start sector]
Sets the start sector for restoring a partition to the hard disk
unallocated space.
size:[partition size in
sectors]
Sets the new partition size (in sectors).
fat16_32
Enables the file system conversion from FAT16 to FAT32 if the
partition size after recovery is likely to exceed 2GB. Without this
option, the recovered partition will inherit the file system from the
image.
type:[active | primary |
logical]
Sets the restored partition active, primary or logical, if possible
(for example, there cannot be more than four primary partitions
on the disk.) Setting a partition active always sets it primary,
while a partition set primary may stay inactive.
If the type is not specified, the program tries to keep the target
partition type. If the target partition is active, the restored
partition is set active. If the target partition is primary, and there
are other primary partitions on the disk, one of them will be set
active, while the restored partition becomes primary. If no other
primary partitions remain on the disk, the restored partition is set
active.
When restoring a partition on unallocated space, the program
extracts the partition type from the image. For the primary
partition, the type will be set as follows:
- if the target disk is the 1st according to BIOS and it has not
