Setting Up a Directory Structure for Deployment 47
To deploy on Windows Server 2008 operating systems:
1
Create an operating system-specific directory in the root directory of the
network share. For example,
W2K8_deploy.
2
Create two directories under the
W2K8_deploy
directory:
sources
and
<
platform name
>
, for example,
PE2950
. Copy the contents of the
operating system media to
sources
.
NOTE:
The platform name must be a DTK standard name. To know
the platform name, run
TKENVSET.BAT
located in the
x:\Dell\32\Toolkit\Template\Scripts
directory,
and then run the
SET
command. In the
Details
section, see the
DT_PLATFORM
name.
3
Under
PE2950
, create two directories:
$OEM$
and
Out-of-Box Drivers
.
4
Copy all the drivers to
W2K8_deploy\PER720\ Out-of-Box Drivers
. You
can copy each driver to a different sub-folder.
5
Copy
unattend.xml
from
\Toolkit\Template\Configs
to
W2K8_deploy\PER720
.
6
If required, modify the
unattend.xml
for
DiskID
under the tags
DiskConfiguration
and
ImageInstall
. Default value is 0 for
DiskID
.
7
Make sure that
DiskID
specified in the
unattend.xml
is actually available
to install the operating system. You can run the
DiskPart
utility to check
disk details.
8
Boot your system with DTK Windows PE image.
9
Run the following command to connect the target system to the shared
folder
W2K8_deploy
.
X:\Dell\Toolkit\Tools net use z: \\<IP address of
the management station>\W2K8_deploy
10
From your system, run
TKENVSET.BAT
under
\Toolkit\Template\Scripts.
11
On your system, set the environment variable
DT_DRIVE=Z:
.
12
Navigate to
Toolkit\Template\Scripts
and run
W2K8INST.BAT
.
