User's Manual

NOTE: To resolve the RPM dependency related issues, install the missing RPMs from /mnt/cdrom/RPMs

directory. If the RPMs are not available in this directory, install these RPMs from the operating system media.

Installing Using YUM

To install DTK RPMs using YUM:

1. Install YUM and the dependency RPMs.

2. Mount the DTK iso to /mnt/cdrom.

3. Create a repository file (for example, dtk.repo) for the required operating system in a writable location. The

corresponding RPMs for the operating system is located at /mnt/cdrom/RPMs/<OS>, where OS can be Red Hat

Enterprise Linux 5 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

For example, to deploy DTK RPMs on RHEL 6.3, you can use the following content in dtk.repo file:

[DTK_RHEL6]

name=DTK_RHEL6

baseurl=file:///mnt/cdrom/RPMs/rhel6/

enabled=true

4. Use the following command to install DTK RPMs: yum install -c dtk.repo -y <RPM>, where <

RPM

can be DTK binaries.

NOTE: For both installations, the raidcfg and syscfg binaries and libraries are installed at /opt/dell/toolkit/bin.

The racadm binaries are installed at /opt/dell/srvadmin/bin and /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin.

Post Installation Of RPMs

After installing the RPMs, perform the following:

1. For the binaries syscfg and raidcfg, export the PATH environment variable /opt/dell/toolkit/bin.

2. To start the services, navigate to /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin, and type: srvadmin-services.sh start

NOTE: To execute the commands to configure the system as per the requirements, see the

Dell OpenManage

Deployment Toolkit Command Line Interface Reference Guide

available at dell.com/support/manuals.

Deployment Using Customized Embedded Linux

Make sure that you have the following basic libraries, Dell toolkit libraries, tools, and utilities required for DTK and

integrate them to your embedded Linux deployment environment to proceed with the deployment:

• Drivers for all hardware installed in the embedded Linux. These drivers are available at support.dell.com.

• Serial port configuration utilities (setserial and stty) for racadm.

• Installed and working instrumentation drivers from /mnt/cdrom/tools.

• Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) tools.

• Basic libraries and utilities for Linux to execute customized scripts.

• Installed DTK and the dependency RPMs.

• Necessary entries in the ld.so.config file so that the libraries are installed.

Integrate all the above mentioned libraries, Dell toolkit libraries, tools, and utilities into your embedded Linux

environment and proceed with deployment.

NOTE: For more information on how Dell‑provided utilities and drivers are installed, see start-stage3.sh , start-

hapi.sh, or start-raid.sh available in /mnt/cdrom/tools.

NOTE: The /opt/dell/srvadmin/sharedand /opt/dell/srvadmin/hapi directories must have read-write permissions. For

more details, see start-stage3.sh and start-hapi.sh.
