What happened to DISM checkHealth, scanHealth and restoreHealth?

I'm trying to repair a windows 10 system.

So far I've managed to create a bootable windows 10 repair disk (writable CD) and have managed to boot to a command prompt. Following various threads I've used sfc /SCANNOW to confirm that my protected windows files are all ok.

I then used chkdsk /r /f /x to tell me that I have half a dozen disk errors (which chkdsk repeatedly fails to fix)

I then moved on to DISM (ver 10.0.18362.900). All the threads I followed mentioned using checkHealth, scanHealth and restoreHealth.

Non of these options seem to be available with my version of DISM, I think I have the latest version (windows last updated itself a few days ago) what are the current equivalents of checkHealth, scanHealth and restoreHealth ?

Update - Ramhound is correct. After failing to get my command to run I typed

C:\WINDOWS\system32>DISM.exe /? 

To see what options were available and I got this listing.

You are running the incorrect command. The full output of the correct command is the following:

The options do indeed exist. The correct options would be /CheckHealth, /ScanHealth, and /RestoreHealth

You won't be able to use /Online within WinRE.

Maybe you're typing commands incorrectly Run your Command Prompt as administrator option then type the following command

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Type the following command to repair the Windows 10 image and press Enter:

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:F:\Sources\install.wim

I also want you know that an active internet connection is required while running this command
