The following command will list backups, contained in the archive /usr/backups/backups.tib, with
their pit numbers. This command is designed to obtain pit numbers for consolidation:
their pit numbers. This command is designed to obtain pit numbers for consolidation:
trueimagecmd --pit_info --filename:/usr/backups/backups.tib
The list will look like the following:
Pit number: 1
type: file; kind: base; date: 10/18/07 2:45:02 PM
Pit number: 2
type: file; kind: incremental; date: 10/18/07 2:47:38 PM
Pit number: 3
type: file; kind: incremental; date: 10/18/07 2:49:58 PM
Pit number: 1

The following command will create in the folder /usr/backups an archive consisting of two files:
kons.tib, (pit 2 of the archive /usr/backups/backups.tib) and kons2.tib (pit 3 of the archive
/usr/backups/backups.tib). Therefore, the ‘kons’ archive is a copy of the ‘backups’ archive
without pit 1. Use this command to get rid of backups that you no longer need, while keeping the
archive:
kons.tib, (pit 2 of the archive /usr/backups/backups.tib) and kons2.tib (pit 3 of the archive
/usr/backups/backups.tib). Therefore, the ‘kons’ archive is a copy of the ‘backups’ archive
without pit 1. Use this command to get rid of backups that you no longer need, while keeping the
archive:
trueimagecmd --consolidate --filename:/usr/backups/backups.tib \
--include_pits:2,3 --target_filename:/usr/backups/kons.tib
The following command will restore the MBR from partition image D1 to the hard disk 1:
trueimagecmd --deploy_mbr --filename:/usr/backups/D1.tib --harddisk:1
The following command will export the "archive1" archive from the root folder to the new
archive named "archive2" in the "exported" folder:
archive named "archive2" in the "exported" folder:
trueimagecmd --export --vault:/ --arc:archive1 --target_vault:/exported \
--target_arc:archive2
The following command will export the "archive1" archive from managed vault "vault10" to the
network share:
network share:
trueimagecmd --export --vault:bsp://StorageNode/vault10 --arc:archive1 \
--net_src_user:username --net_src_password:password \
--net_src_user:username --net_src_password:password \
--target_vault:smb://server/exported --target_arc:archive2 \
--net_user:username --net_password:password
The following command will export the "archive1" archive from the network share to the
"exported" folder:
"exported" folder:
trueimagecmd --export --vault:smb://server/backups/ --arc:archive1 \
--target_vault:/exported --target_arc:archive2 --net_src_user:username \
--net_src_password:password
1.2 Automatic image creation using cron service
As a rule, disk/partition images are created regularly, often daily. To automate this operation, you
can use the cron service familiar to many UNIX users.

As an example, let’s consider a situation where you (the system administrator) need to back up one
or more disk partitions regularly.

Use the --list command to obtain the necessary partition number:
