Using Command-line Switches with Executable Images
In rare cases, you might need to use switches with executable image files. Multiple
switches can be used on the same command-line. As with other switches, you can use
them on the command-line or in a batch file.
In addition, you can use the
-noprompt switch, which bypasses the default screen that
prompts the user before imaging begins.
Example If you named your self-extracting file baseimag.exe when you created
(uploaded) it, you would type the following on the command-line or in your autoexec.bat
file:
baseimag.exe -noprompt
You can combine this switch with any of the other switches.
Using File System Independent Resource
Management (FIRM)
FIRM gives you file access to all FAT, NTFS, and EXT2 file systems on your hard disk
from the automation environment. This is an advanced feature
. You do not have to use
it to perform normal management tasks.
-ve:[31.34] Function Set VESA screen resolution.
Example To set screen resolution to VESA mode 31
(640x480x256), type
rdeploy -ve:31
-w[n] Function When multicasting, specifies the maximum number of
minutes to wait for Client PCs to connect. If all Client PCs
connect, it will start right away.
Default: 5 minutes (or until the specified number of Client PCs is
connected).
Example To set the timeout to wait for PC Clients to 10
minutes, type
rdeploy -w10 -mdb -f[filename] -s9
See also -m[mode], -s[number of Client PCs]
-x Function Cause the image to be saved as a self-extracting file.
This setting will automatically be set if the image file name
specified by the
-f parameter ends with .EXE.
