The show image command will display data contained in an information block in an archived copy of the CNA image that was created by the backup command.

If you added notes during the backup, your text will be displayed in the show image output.

You can pipe the command through one of the following filters:

• include--shows all lines in the output which contain a match to the specified regular expression
• exclude--shows all lines in the output except those which contain a match to the specified regular expression
• begin--shows all lines in the output beginning with the first match to the specified regular expression

The vertical-line pipe character | is required when a filter is used.

You can send the output to a remote file location, by piping the display to a remote URL (leading > required). See the copy command for URL syntax.
