Shows usage.

-l|--list

Lists already mounted user mode block devices.

-m|--mount mountpoint

Mounts the archive image specified by -f|--filename option into the folder specified by
mountpoint

option. The partition index should be specified by -i|--index option. Image

file contents (partitions and their indices) may be listed by trueimagecmd --list --
filename:filename

command.

To mount an incremental image, you must have all previous incremental images and the initial full
image. If any of successive images is missing, the mounting is impossible.

-u|--umount mountpoint

Unmounts the device mounted at mountpoint, destroys kernel space block device and
stops user space daemon.

-s|--stop pid

Destroys kernel space block device and stops user space daemon specified by pid. This
command should be used if an error occurs while mounting and unmounted user space
daemon/kernel space block device pair survives. Such a pair is listed by -l|--list
command with none in mountpoint field.

-t|--test

A test command. Mounts a file, specified in -f|--filename option, containing valid Linux
filesystem, as if it is Acronis True Image archive. The command may be used, for example,

to estimate an image compression level, by comparing the time, necessary for copying a file

from the image, with the time for copying the mounted (non-compressed) file.

Trueimagemnt supports the following command options:

-f|--filename archive filename

The image file name. trueimagemnt transparently supports NFS and Samba network

access. To access a NFS network drive, specify the image file name as follows:

nfs://hostname/share name:/remote filename

For example:

trueimagemnt -m /mnt/md1 -f nfs://dhcp6-
223.acronis.com/sdb3/nfs_root:/mike/md1.tib -i 2

mounts /mike/md1.tib archive, located on dhcp6-223.acronis.com node in /sdb3/nfs_root

directory exported by NFS.

To get Samba network access, specify the image file name as follows:

smb://hostname/share name/remote filename
