  • 1.  Image corruption after Windows Update

    Posted Dec 14, 2017 05:01 PM

    Hi,

    I have GSS 3.1 MP 6 server.  I have a valid Windows 10 version 1703 image that I have been using for a few months now.  I'm trying to update the image to include the latest Windows Updates.  I narrowed the problem down to the 2017-12 Cumulative Update for WIndows 10 version 1703 for x64-based Systems (KB4053580). When I create the image it completes but when I try to open it in Ghost Explorer I get the error "Corruption in image file, or media not present. Not all files are shown".  In the left window it will show the System Reserved partition but not the "main" partition.  I tried pushing the corrupt image to a PC and I get Error 99 which was expected but I read where sometimes the image will work but not open in Ghost Explorer.  When I create the image I use the Additional Parameters of -CLONE,MODE=CREATE,SRC=1,DST=%IMAGE_FILENAME% -SURE -Z1.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Paul

    Just a thought, but have you considered updating to the latest Ghost 3.2 release?  Releases and release notes can be found in this forum.

    Paul,

     

    I would second what EdT says and upgrade to GSS 3.2 RU4. However this should not be causing the issue you are seeing.

    I would use the following switches on capture (along with default switches) : -IB -NOTRIM -Z1

    on deploy: -NTEXACT -NOTRIM

     

    and see if that resolves your issues with deployment.

    Yes, I will be updating to the latest release within the next few weeks.  In the meantime I will try the additional switches you recommended.  Thank you for your suggestions!
