Removes a multicast transmission. Unless you specify a value for the /Force option, existing clients will complete the image transfer but new clients will not be able to join.
Syntax
WDSUTIL /Remove-MulticastTransmission /Image:<Image name> [/Server:<Server name>] /ImageType:Install [/ImageGroup:<Image Group>] [/Filename:<File name>] [/Force]
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
|
/Image:<Image name> |
Specifies the name of the image that identifies the multicast transmission to be removed. |
|
[/Server:<Server name>] |
Specifies the name of the server. This can be either the NetBIOS name or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN). If no server name is specified, the local server will be used. |
|
/ImageType:Install |
Specifies the image type. Note that this option must be set to Install. |
|
[/ImageGroup:<Image group name>] |
Specifies the image group containing the image that identifies the multicast transmission to be removed. If no image group name is specified and only one image group exists on the server, that image group will be used. If more than one image group exists on the server, you must use this option to specify the image group name. |
|
[/Filename:<File name>] |
If the source image cannot be uniquely identified by name, you must use this option to specify the file name. |
|
[/Force] |
This removes the transmission and terminates all clients. |
Examples
To stop a namespace (current clients will complete the transmission, but new clients will not be able to join), type:
WDSUTIL /Remove-MulticastTransmission /Image:"Vista with Office" /ImageType:Install
To force termination of all clients, type:
WDSUTIL /Remove-MulticastTransmission /Server:MyWDSServer /Image:"Vista with Office" /ImageType:Install /ImageGroup:ImageGroup1 /Filename:install.wim /Force
