Export-WdsBootImage |
Exports an existing boot image from an image store.
Export-WdsBootImage [-NewDescription <String>] -Destination <String> [-NewImageName <String>] [-Force]
-ImageName <String> -Architecture <Architecture> [-FileName <String>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
The Export-WdsBootImage cmdlet exports a boot image from the Windows Deployment Services image store to a Windows image file (.wim). You can use the Force parameter to overwrite the image file if you export an image to a file that already exists.
Specify the boot image by using the ImageName and Architecture parameters. If the image name and architecture do not uniquely identify the image, also specify the FileName parameter.
PS C:\> Export-WdsBootImage -Architecture x86 -Destination "D:\images\exported.wim" -ImageName "Fabrikam LOB setup (x86)" -NewDescription "Fabrikam LOB exported from server" -Force
This command exports the boot image named Fabrikam LOB setup (x86) for the x86 architecture. The command exports the image to the file that is named exported.wim. The command specifies a description for the exported image. The Force parameter specifies that the cmdlet overwrites a file that has the same name without prompting you for confirmation.
Specifies an architecture. This is the architecture of the boot image. Because you can use the same image name for boot images in different architectures, specify this parameter to make sure that you export the correct image. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- ARM
- ia64
- x64
- x86
Type: Architecture
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Accepted values: X86, Ia64, X64, Arm
Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)

Runs the cmdlet as a background job.
Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt.
You can continue to work in the session while the job completes.
To manage the job, use the *-Job
cmdlets.
To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0
is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer.
The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
