## DESCRIPTION

Prepare this machine's filesystem for use in the cloud

## DESCRIPTION

This command must be run as the superuser.

- **-p** PREFIX, **--prefix** PREFIX

  the file name prefix to give the bundle's files (default: image)

- **-d** DIR, **--destination** DIR

  location to place the bundle's files (default: dir named by TMPDIR, TEMP, or TMP environment variables, or otherwise */var/tmp*)

- **-r** {i386,x86\_64,armhf,ppc,ppc64,ppc64le}, **--arch** {i386,x86\_64,armhf,ppc,ppc64,ppc64le}

  the image's architecture (required)

- **-e** PATH,..., **--exclude** PATH,...

  comma-separated list of paths to exclude

- **-i** PATH,..., **--include** PATH,...

  comma-separated list of paths to include

- **-s** MiB, **--size** MiB

  size of the image to create (default: 10240 MiB)

- **--no-filter**

  do not filter out sensitive/system files

- **--all**

  include all filesystems regardless of type (default: only include local filesystems)
