How do GHOST disk mirroring and backup

The use of Ghost for system backup, and the entire hard disk (Disk) and hard disk partition (Partition) in two ways. In the menu, click Local (local), the pop-up menu in the right, 3 sub-item, which said Disk backup the entire hard drive (that is, cloning), Partition that a single hard disk partition backup, Check that your hard disk or backup to check the documents to see if possible partition, the hard disk is damaged causing a backup or restore failure. Zoning backup as individual users to save data, especially in the restoration and reproduction of the system partition has practical value.  Click on the window white hard information section, select the hard disk into the window, choose to operate the district (if there is no mouse, keyboard can be used: TAB key to switch ENTER to confirm the arrow keys to choose).In the pop-up window, select the backup storage directory path and enter the backup file name, pay attention to the backup file name with the suffix name GHO.Next, the procedure will be asked whether the compressed backup data, and gives three choices: No that is not compressed, Fast said the compression ratio of small and faster implementation of the backup, High compression ratio is high but the implementation of the backup at a fairly slow.Yes button on the final choice that partition the hard disk to start the backup. Ghost backup at a fairly rapid pace, do not wait too long to complete, backup file to GHO name suffix settings stored in the directory. Second, the system cloning Cloning hard drive is on the entire hard disk backup and restore.Select Menu Local → Disk → To Disk, in the pop-up window, select the source of the hard disk (the first hard disk), and then choose to copy it to the target hard drive (second hard disk).Note that you can set up goals by region the size of the hard disk, Ghost can automatically set on the target hard disk partition by numerical partition and format. Select Yes to start the implementation. Ghost may be able to target hard drive to copy the source hard disk is almost exactly the same, and the partition, formatting, copying systems and document in one step.Only to the attention of the target hard disk can not be too small to be able to source the contents of hard disk loading of data. Ghost also offers a hard drive backup feature that the whole hard disk data backup into a file on your hard drive (menu Local → Disk → To Image), and then you can always revert to the other hard drive or the source of the hard drive, which is installed multiple systems easily.Use similar methods and partition backup. Third, System Restore If the hard disk partition data backup damaged, with general information on repair methods could not be saved, as well as the system was broken could not be activated, can be used to back up data recovery without having to completely reinstall the program or system.Of course, can also backup and restore to another hard disk. To restore the backup partition on the menu interface to select Local → Partition → From Image, in the pop-up window, choose to restore the backup file, and then choose to restore the hard disk and partition, click the Yes button.Software features Storage media Ghost in support of the storage medium beyond our imagination, such as its support for the LPT interface, on a reciprocal USB interface, peer-to-peer TCP / IP interfaces, SCSI tape drives, portable devices (JAZ, ZIP, MO, etc.), CD-ROM burner ( CDR, CDRW) and so on.These characteristics of the bargain does not require any drivers and software, just a floppy disk can be done!Especially for the support of CD-ROM burner, now the burners and blank discs are very cheap, very suitable for backup purposes. IV Compatibility Ghost of existing operating systems have good support, including FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, HPFS, UNIX, NOVELL, such as document storage format.With the only difference is that the previous version, Ghost 2001 to join the Linux EX2 support (FIFO file storage format), which means that Linux users can also use Ghost to backup system. Fifth, supporting software support Ghost browser: Ghost in previous versions of the system we can only simple backup, copy, restore, to restore individual files and folders but also of the use of outer GhostEXP software.Now, Symantec has Ghost browser will be integrated in the software.Ghost browser Explorer similar interface, through it, we can easily back up quickly in the package we want to find files and folders and restore.  Gdisk: Gdisk is a new utility, it completely replaced the Fdisk and format: * Quick format.  * Hide and show the ability to partition.This feature allows more than one primary DOS partition, and each district on a different operating system versions.District's ability to hide the computer used to guide the boot partition can be selected, and ignore the hidden partition in the same operating system installation.  * A comprehensive report on the district. * Highly secure erase the disk.Provided in line with the U.S. Department of Defense standards and a higher safety standard disk erase option.And the use of interactive menu Fdisk different, GDisk by the command-line driven.This provides faster disk partition configuration and definition in a batch file GDisk operating capacity.But at the same time, dozens of parameters would make the average user a headache, so I do not recommend the use of general users, Symantec Corporation should also be put in the corresponding GUI (graphical user interface) console to facilitate users. Specific parameters that can use the command line gdisk /Understanding. Live Update Live Update Live Update is Symantec's software upgrade of a common procedure, it can check the current system has been installed Symantec software, and through the Internet for software upgrades online. Ghost 2001 is installed, the installer automatically upgraded version of Live Update process. Sixth, additional command line parameters: (limited to no man's Ghost Backup / Restore / copy) In fact, the function of Ghost 2001 is far more than its main program to display those, Ghost can be activated in its command line to add the many parameters in order to achieve more.Command-line parameters used are rather complicated, but we can create a batch file to "once and for all" (similar to one installed on Windows 98 and Windows 2000) Let us now to understand some commonly used parameters (a more detailed understanding of the parameters introduced Ghost can view the help file). 1.-rb The operation of the end of Ghost quit automatically restart.In this way, copy the system can be assured on the left. 2.-fx  The operation of the end of Exit Ghost automatically return to DOS prompt. 3.-sure Of all the requirements to confirm or warning will be prompted to answer "Yes". This parameter is a certain danger, it is only suggested for advanced users. 4.-fro If the source partition found bad cluster, then skipped a mandatory copy tips.This parameter can be used to try to save the data in Bad Track your hard disk. 5.@filename 5. @ Filename Txt in the filename specified in a document.txt file for the Ghost of additional parameters, it can be exempted from the DOS command-line 150-character limit. 6.-f32 Copies of the source after the FAT16 partition into FAT32 (the premise that the target partition is not less than 2G).WinNT 4 and Windows95, 97 users to be used with caution. 7.-bootcd When the CD-ROM directly to the backup file, this option can make into a bootable CD-ROM.Add to this process requires a boot disk. 8.-fatlimit  NT's FAT16 partition will be limited to 2G.This parameter in the Windows NT partition to copy, and do not want to use 64k / cluster FAT16 very useful. 9.-span  Sub-volume parameters.  When lack of space when you are prompted to copy to another partition, another backup package. 10.-auto Sub-volume copy is not automatically given a prompt on the file name to continue. 11.-crcignore Neglected backup package CRC ERROR.Unless the needs of the rescue package to back up data, otherwise, do not use this parameter to prevent data errors. 12.-ia All image.Ghost will be on your hard disk by all of the district to back up. 13.-ial  All image, similar to-ia parameters, one by one on the Linux partition backup. 14.-id Similar-ia parameters, but the guide contains information partition. 15.-quiet  Prohibition of operation status updates and user intervention. 16.-script Can perform a number of Ghost command line.Command-line store in a designated file. 17.-span  The opening of the inter-volume image file function. 18.-split=x 18.-split = x Backup package is divided into a number of sub-volumes, each volume of the size of x trillion.This feature is very useful for large-scale backup copy packets to the mobile storage devices, such as a backup 1.9G packet copied to the three recording disc. 19.-z  The disk or partition the content saved to the image file when compressed.-z or-z1 lower compression ratio (fast);-z2 for the high compression rate (medium speed);-z3 to-z9 followed by increased compression ratio (speed in turn slow down). 20.-clone  This is no Ghost Backup / Restore the core parameters. The use of syntax is: -clone,MODE=(operation),SRC=(source),DST=(destination),[SZE(size),SZE(size)......] -clone, MODE = (operation), SRC = (source), DST = (destination), [SZE (size), SZE (size )......]  This parameter line is more complicated and between each parameter can not contain spaces.Which is intended to operate the type of operation, the value of desirable: copy: disk-to-disk; load: file to disk; dump: disk-to-file; pcopy: partition to partition; pload: documents to the district; pdump: partition to a file. Source means the source of the operation, the value would be preferable: the drive number, starting at 1; or file name, the need to write absolute path. Destination intended target location, the value would be preferable: the drive number, starting at 1; or file name, the need to write absolute path; @ CDx, burner, x said burner drive number, starting at 1.
