The majority of the editing required for the DTK sample scripts involves the following script. As a result,
the majority of the scripting discussion focuses on:
TKENVSET.BAT
Other task scripts might require edits in certain situations. These optional edits are discussed in "Editing
DTK Task Scripts."
TKENVSET.BAT
The TKENVSET.BAT script sets the path of the DTK installation and variables for the system to be
deployed and configured. The variables and paths specified in this file must be specified before any of
the other supporting scripts can be used.
Specifying DTK Installation Paths
The TKENVSET.BAT sample script is provided with the following default values. These values must be
confirmed, in some cases, and modified, in other cases, before a deployment. Locate the
Deployment Toolkit Installation Paths heading to find the following lines:
set DT_DRIVE=X:
set DT_PATH=%DT_DRIVE%\Dell\Toolkit
set DT_TOOLS=%DT_PATH%\Tools
