NAME
tsk_loaddb - populate a SQLite database with metadata from a disk image
SYNOPSIS
tsk_loaddb [-ahkvV] [ -i imgtype ] [ -b dev_sector_size ] [ -i imgtype ] [ -d database ] image [images]
DESCRIPTION
tsk_loaddb loads disk information from image to a SQLite database. This database can then be used by tools in other languages for analy- sis. By default, the database is stored in the same directory as the image with ".db" appended to the name or the database name can be spec- ified with '-d'. The arguments are as follows: -a Adds image to an existing database instead of creating a new one. Requires that -d be also specified. -d database Path for the database (default is the same directory as the image with name derived from image name -v verbose output to stderr -V Print version -k Don't create block data table. This table maps each block to the file that allocated it. This option will make this program run faster. -h Calculate MD5 hash value for each file and store it in table. This option will make the program run slower. -i imgtype The format of the image file, such as raw. Use '-i list' to list the supported types. If not given, autodetection methods are used. -b dev_sector_size The size (in bytes) of the device sectors. If not given, autodetection methods are used. image [images] The disk or partition image to read, whose format is given with '-i'. Multiple image file names can be given if the image is split into multiple segments. If only one image file is given, and its name is the first in a sequence (e.g., as indicated by ending in '.001'), subsequent image segments will be included automatically.
EXAMPLES
To load image data from image.dd to image.dd.db: # tsk_loaddb ./image.dd
