asr

Restore (copy) a disk image onto a volume. The command name stands for Apple Software Restore. More information: https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages/asr.8.html.

• Restore a disk image to a target volume:

sudo asr restore --source {{image_file.dmg}} --target {{path/to/volume_file}}

• Erase the target volume before restoring:

sudo asr restore --source {{image_file.dmg}} --target {{path/to/volume_file}} --erase

• Skip verification after restoring:

sudo asr restore --source {{image_file.dmg}} --target {{path/to/volume_file}} --noverify

• Clone volumes without using an intermediate disk image:

sudo asr restore --source {{path/to/volume_file}} --target {{path/to/volume_file}}
