Nate, if nate.sh opens, great. If it doesn't open then remove the .sh extension and see if "nate" opens.
The ifl.tbs runs fine. Nate.sh does not, nate does only after I close the window opened by ifl.tbs (as expected).
OK. Sounds normal. Does nate without the extension run from the IFL Script Menu? Or did I misunderstand. Nate runs and nate.sh doesn't? Can you look in mnt. (The mnt icon). Which partition is mounted?
Yes, nate w/o extension runs from the menu and autoruns. Nate.sh does neither. /tbu/boot is the only thing mounted.
Thanks. TeraByte suggested boot the IFL UFD. Click Terminal and enter this... chmod +x /tbu/boot/scripts/nate.sh Now try to run nate.sh chmod makes the script executable even though it should already be executable.
I guess not but I'll ask. If it works, well and good. Can you let me know if chmod works before I contact TeraByte.
After running "chmod +x /tbu/boot/scripts/sysrestore.sh the scripy, sysrestore.sh did function as intended.
Use working scripts without a file extension or chmod scripts... Delete --rb:4 from the script and add these 2 lines. Do the editing in Wordpad rather than Notepad as it seems more friendly to Linux. Code: rm /tbu/boot/scripts/scriptslist.txt reboot Copy the IFL UFD partition to the HD partition. Over-write. In BIBM is the IFL partition on HD 1? Or HD 0? In BIBM select the IFL partition and click Properties. In the Title bar, what is the number after Properties? This is the Partition ID. Then I'll be able to give you Windows scripts to start the IFL restore. I forgot, in BIBM, Settings, make sure there is a tick in Bootnow Support. Download the Windows Bootnow files (ver 1.30a)... https://www.terabyteunlimited.com/downloads-bootit-bare-metal.htm#addon Unzip these to a new folder called D:\Bootnow. Make sure there are no folders in D:\Bootnow. Only files. Is your 1 TB drive a HD or SSD? Is it NVMe?
I've been wetching this with interest. BUT, I am seeing violates an important principle. Keep It Simple. Brian, you are a genius with this software no doubt, but Nate, I question the wisdom of what you are trying to do. Years ago when I was working a lot with Shadow Protect, it was possible to totally automate imaging. I set it up, tested and then turned it loose, and didn't pay it much mind. Several months later, when I had a problem, I discovered, the process had failed a month before and all the images since then where bad. Lesson learned. Today, I run Macrium on an automated schedule. But I also do a manual image to another target, and when I do that, I check the results of the schedule. I run IFW, using Pandlucks scripts and the are beautiful. I can run them manually which I do or on a schedule with Task Scheduler. Same with Acronis, I run it with a script, and again it can be automated with task scheduler. I run it manually. I would NEVER automate restores. I want to watch and check after the restores. Its not something you would normally do all that often. I do, and still wouldn't do it. Anyway my 3 cents. Pete
What you're saying you do with Reflect is kinda what I'm trying to automate with IFW/IFL. When you select an image in Reflect and tell it to restore, Reflect reboots into winPE and restores the image automatically then reboots. That's what I want with IFL/IFW; restore automation. It saves time. The only reason I don't use reflect is because they refuse to let use image flash drives, and that matters to me.
Ah Okay. I don't consider it automatic, just a difference semantics. I use both Macrium and IFW. That way I take advantage of both of their strengths. Never hurts to have more than one image. Believe me.
I have a fresh Win10 1903 install with the Reserved Storage removed. Restoring an image of this OS, using IFL, takes 3 seconds. This is my record fastest time.
Hi I think i probably will get an answer here faster than at Terabyte. A new copy with minor updates of IFW will cost me about 40 Dollars, but what will an upgrade cost when a new version comes out? There is no info that i can find about that on their site.
Two things to remember... that $40 is for 5-machines (I believe it's 5 now) and the last major release (v2) was around for over 3-yrs
pb1, If you buy Ver3 TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite and Ver4 is released in the following 12 months, you get it for free. If Ver4 is released beyond 12 months you get it for half price. The same applies to TeraByte BootIt Collection. Ver1 software lasted 5 years. Ver2 software lasted 8 years. Ver3 software was released 3 years ago so my guess is Ver4 is 5 years away. About ten free upgrades are provided each year.
Another thing to remember is that the customer accounts have a download limit of 1gb (do not know when it gets reset). If you exceed it you will get banned like the one that happened to me 4 hours ago. And it happened to a customer that has only downloaded less than 300mb the last 24 months. And because I wanted make a copy and update my apps after 2 years, I tried to download all the english versions of my account and got banned.
Do not know, I contacted support 5 hours ago and still waiting for a response. 5-6 years ago also exceeded the max 500mb(?) at the time, and got a warning no more download possible... I understand the download limit, even though it shouldn't be less than the sum of the programs versions on each account... What I do not understand is why they have not documented this, why my customer/account page does not warn about the limit and e specially why the account got disabled. Panagiotis
