You can choose several other options while creating this task.

Option
Description
Media
Determines at what point an image file is split into multiple files.
When you use Ghost imaging tool to create image over network such as HTTP or mapped path of Package Server or SMP, the maximum span size is 1.99 GB that refers to the zero split value. Otherwise, the split value that you entered is considered as the maximum file size. If the split value is less than 2 GB, the spans of the requested size are created. For IIS Web servers, by default, spans of 2 GB are created. For the servers that are not IIS Web servers, by default the split size is unlimited. If you specify the split size as 0 or -, then no spans are created. Only a single image is created on the Web server.
In case you are aware of any upload file size limit, you must specify that as maximum file size.
Command-line
Lets you add command-line options for the imaging tool.
HTTP
Lets you upload and download images through HTTP Web server.
You need to set up the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager to get HTTP imaging to work. Otherwise, if you try to use HTTP with the Create Image task, the job fails and returns a message that the file could not be created.
