Chapter 15. Command-line mode and
scripting
Acronis True Image Workstation (local version) supports the command-line mode and
enables backup automation by executing XML scripts.
The command-line mode functionality is somewhat limited as compared to the GUI mode.
You will not be able to perform operations that require reboot of the system, such as restore
a system partition or clone system drive. These operations can be done through the GUI
only.
As for scripting, it is intended only for backup.
15.1 Working in the command-line mode
An administrator might need a console interface in some situations. Acronis True Image
Workstation supports this mode with TrueImageCmd.exe utility. The file is located in a
folder where Acronis True Image Workstation has been installed, by default it is
C:\Program Files\Acronis\TrueImageWorkstation.
15.1.1 Supported commands

trueimagecmd /command /option1 /option2…
Commands may be accompanied with options. Some options are common for most
