Script to capture image remotely

[amtech]

Hi,

I have made a script to capture image of drives on remote computers.
This works very nicely but I noticed that compression is either gzip or
bzip.
I ran both and it seems they are the same.
I also noticed that the GUI tool has BZip2, not bzip. Is that by design or
just an oversight?

Love your program!
please keep up the great work1

Here's my script in case anyone is interested....

---

@echo off

rem Read a list of computers and run odin backup on those computers

set strdate=%date:~-10,2%-%date:~-7,2%-%date:~-4,4%

for /f %%a in ('type "c:\computers.txt"') DO (

IF Not EXIST "\backup\E$\images\%%a" (
mkdir "\backup\E$\images\%%a"

PSEXEC "\%%a" -u domain\administrator -p Password -c -f -h odin.exe
-makeSnapshot -backup -compression=gzip -source=1
-target=\backup\E$\images\%%a\%%a-Cdrive-%strdate%.img

PSEXEC "\%%a" -u domain\administrator -p Password -c -f -h odin.exe
-makeSnapshot -backup -compression=gzip -source=2
-target=\backup\E$\images\%%a\%%a-Ddrive-%strdate%.img

)

)

cmd

Nice script.

There is no bzip compressor afaik. If there is, it was a predecessor to the
bzip2 format.

Though I'd tweak on the script abit
Not sure if all the back slashes will show up

Note: The computer list doesn't use back slashes so ping will work
Note: \\backup is a server so, it should have two back slashes in front of it
Note: The \\%%a after PSEXEC has two back slashes
