NAME

       wimverify - Verify a WIM archive

SYNOPSIS

       wimverify WIMFILE [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       wimverify  (or equivalently wimlib-imagex verify) checks the validity and integrity of the
       specified WIM archive.

       Specifically, this command performs the following verifications on the WIM:

       •   Verify that the WIM can be successfully opened, which  involves  parsing  the  header,
           blob table, and XML data.

       •   If  the  WIM  contains extra integrity information, verify the integrity of the entire
           WIM.

       •   Verify that the metadata for each image in the WIM can be successfully parsed.

       •   Verify that all files needed by each image are actually contained in the WIM or in one
           of the WIMs referenced by the --ref option.

       •   Verify  that  all  files  contained  in the WIM can be successfully decompressed, with
           matching checksums.

OPTIONS

       --ref="GLOB"
             File glob of additional WIMs or split WIM parts to reference resources  from.   This
             option  can  be specified multiple times.  Note: GLOB is listed in quotes because it
             is interpreted by wimverify and may need to  be  quoted  to  protect  against  shell
             expansion.

       --nocheck
             Do  not  verify  the  WIM's  integrity  using  the  extra integrity information (the
             integrity table).

NOTES

       wimverify is a read-only operation; it does not modify the WIM file.

       Even if the WIM does not contain extra integrity  information  (e.g.  generated  with  the
       --check  option  to wimcapture), wimverify may still be quite useful because all file data
       is still checksummed.

       In the future, wimverify might do more thorough verifications than it does now.

EXAMPLES

       Verify the WIM file 'boot.wim':

              wimverify boot.wim

       Verify the split WIM file consisting of 'boot.swm', 'boot2.swm', 'boot3.swm', ...:

              wimverify boot.swm --ref="boot*.swm"
