I am trying to read the contents of a mounted SDI drive (F:) into a
partition blob using the following command:

SDIMGR C:\TEST.SDI /readpart:F

When I execute the command, it returns Reading from volume: "F" ....
and then reports the following error:
Error -2147467529 (0x80004005) in "SDIAUT.SDIFile1": The system cannot
find the file specified.

I really believe the problem is that SDI can not get exclusive access
to the volume. I have tried moving it to another disk, setting the SDI
properties to disable write cacheing and closing down every open window
and application that is running with no results.

Both SDI files are on my development computer on the C: drive which is
the only partition on the computer. I have tried moving the SDI file to
a USB Memory Stick and that didn't make any differerence.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Jon
 
After rereading the documentation on the SDIMGR command I realized that
i was not including a : after the F. The correct command is
SDIMGR c:\test.sdi /readpart:F:

Just posting this so no one wastes as much time as I did on such a dumb
problem
