partimaged-passwd(8) Partition Image Server Configuration partimaged-passwd(8)NAME
partimaged-passwd - Manage partimaged user accounts
SYNTAX
partimaged-passwd [-Dhl] username password
partimaged-passwd [-Dhl] username
DESCRIPTION
partimaged can either authenticate against local user accounts (This needs access to /etc/shadow. As this is a potential security risk this
method is not recommended) or its own password database in /etc/partimaged/passwd.db. To simplify the management of the partimaged user
database this tool was written. It allows to easily add and remove users or list the users in the database. All users in this database are
allowed to access the partimaged server.
OPTIONS -D username
Delete the specified user from the password file.
-l List users in password file and exit.
-h Output help information and exit.
FILES

partimage - back up and restore disk partitions
SYNOPSIS
partimage [ -bcdehimMnoSvwy ] [-B 'pattern response string'] [-z compresslevel] [-V volumesize] [-f actionatend] [-s server] [-p port]
[-a mountoptions] [-U username] [-P password] [-g loglevel] [ save device image_file ]
partimage [ -bcdehimMnoSvwy ] [-B 'pattern response string'] [-z compresslevel] [-V volumesize] [-f actionatend] [-s server] [-p port]
[-a mountoptions] [-U username] [-P password] [-g loglevel] [ restore device image_file/'stdin' ]
partimage [ restmbr image_file ]
partimage [ imginfo image_file ]
DESCRIPTION
partimage backs up disk partitions into image files and restores them.
OPTIONS -z val, --compress val
Set image file compression level:
val=0: don't compress: very fast but very big image file
val=1: compress using gzip: fast and small image file (default)
val=2: compress using bzip2: very slow and very small image file
-c, --nocheck
Don't check the partition before saving.
-o, --overwrite
Overwrite the existing image file without confirmation.
-d, --nodesc
Don't ask any description for the image file.
-V vol, --volume vol
Split image into multiple volumes files. vol will be the size in KB of volumes.
-w, --waitvol
Wait for a confirmation after each volume change.
-e, --erase
Erase empty blocks on restore with zero bytes.
-m, --allowmnt
Don't fail if the partition is mounted. Dangerous!
-M, --nombr
Don't create a backup of the MBR (Mast Boot Record) in the image file.
-h, --help
Show help.
-v, --version
Show version.
-f action, --finish action
Action to do if finished successfully:
action=0: wait (do nothing)
action=1: halt (power off the computer)
action=2: reboot (restart the computer)
action=3: quit
-b, --batch
batch mode: the GUI won't wait for an user action.
-B 'pattern response string', --fully-batch 'pattern response string'
full batch mode: the GUI is not being displayed. Rather status messages are displayed as normal text. The pattern response string
has the following format:
'<glob-pattern>=<response-value>;...'
where the glob pattern is matched against the string <window-title>/<message-text> of the message dialogue box to be displayed. For
dialog boxes with buttons in the window, the <response> must be the exact button text. The pattern response string usually needs to
be quoted as above.
-y, --nosync
Don't synchronize the disks at the end of the operation. Dangerous!
-s addr, --server addr
Give partimaged server's ip address.
-p port, --port port
Give partimaged server's listening port.
-g debuglevel, --debug debuglevel
Set the debug level to debuglevel (defaults to 1).
-n, --nossl
Disable SSL in network mode.
-S, --simulate
Simulation of restoration mode.
-a str, --automnt str
Automatic mount with X options. Read the doc for more details.
-U name, --username=name
Username to authenticate to partimage server.
-P pass, --password=pass
Password for authentication of user to partimage server.
