Preparing the Script Files

This chapter describes the steps required to use the Deployment Toolkit (DTK)

sample scripts to perform a full deployment on a target system in the

Microsoft Windows PE and embedded Linux environment.

There are four main tasks:

• Using the Sample DTK Scripts to Run a Full Deployment

• Editing the Sample Batch Files to Perform a Complete System

Deployment

• Using DTK Sample Scripts to Capture Configuration Information

• Preparing the Operating System Installation Scripts

Using the Sample DTK Scripts to Run a Full

Deployment

A scripted DTK deployment relies on the master deployment file to integrate

all the applicable DTK task scripts and utilities and perform pre-operating

system configuration tasks before launching the operating system installation

files. The master deployment file, along with the TKENVSET.BAT(for

Windows) or tkenvset.sh (for Linux) scripts, makes up the master set of

instructions that drives the deployment process. This file is not provided with

the sample scripts.

A sample DEPLOY.BAT is given below:

*****************************************************

::Call TKENVSET.BAT to discover platform information

::as well as set paths and environment variables for

::Deployment Toolkit Tools and Scripts.

*****************************************************

:: call RAIDCFG.BAT to configure RAID.
