Could you please clarify the following
1. How to use -d# option in Altiris for Create Disk Image.
2. How to run hpshowdisk utility.
Thanks for ur response.

In the WinPE screen you have a DOS box. Run showdisk from here (F:\TechSup\Windows\)

Modify your TASK to capture the image. Second line down says "Additional Parameters"....add your switch here.

Disk 1, Disk 2, Disk 3, etc

So if you want to capture Disk 3 which is 585.94 GB would would use the switch -d3.

Hi all,

I am having a hard time capturing Disk 2 from any of my p-class blades.

Altiris 6.8 (Build 378)
Service Pack:2

I ran showdisk and it found the two disks.
Disk 1 (SCSI): 5140/255/32, 41944320 sectors, 20.00 GB (MBR, sig=d17ed17e)
Disk 2 (SCSI): 2610/255/63, 41944320 sectors, 20.00 GB (MBR, sig=6536e14e)

I tried all these combination of switches in the Additional Parameters section of my job without any success;

-mu -d2
-mu -d1,2
-mu -d2 -f.\Images\Test\W2k3-S-d2.img.

I keep getting the following error;

Error description:
The disk was not found.
(Note: Disk number:1)

I can however upload disk 1 successfully without any of the switches.

Luc

Try specifying both the disk and partition.

eg -d2 -p1

I've had similar issues before trying to capture partitions on disks other than the first. Putting -d* -p* always seemed to fix it.

Thanks. But that didn't work for me. I added the showdisk info and the latest log file.

Both my disks are SAN based and we have removed the second path on both drives.

I get the following error;

Error description:
The disk was not found.
(Note: Disk number:1)

Possible causes:
A problem occurred while accessing the hard drive on your computer.

Possible resolutions:
Repeat the operation to see if the problem occurs in the same manner again.
Replace the hard drive in the computer that is malfunctioning.
