:: RAIDCFG section:: default size for virtual disk

set DT_VD_SIZE=10480

:: default size for virtual disk

In partcfg.sh in BIOS mode:

DT_PARTN_UP=on

# Default Hard Drive

DT_HD=/dev/sda

# deployment section

set DT_DP_SIZE=64

# DELL UP section

set DT_UP_SIZE=32

set DT_UP_IMAGE=$dt_systems/upimg.bin

# RAIDCFG section

DT_VD_SIZE=10480

# default size for virtual disk

CAUTION: DT_MOUNT specifies the mount point of the Dell utility partition. If your RAMDRIVE, hard drive, or other

device already owns this designation, mount does not override the setting and the utility partition is not created.

In partcfg.sh in UEFI mode:

DT_PARTN_UP=OFF

# Default Hard Drive

DT_HD=/dev/sda

# PARTCFG section

set DT_DP_SIZE_GPT=125

# RAIDCFG section

DT_VD_SIZE=10480

# default size for virtual disk

Editing The Default Partition Configuration Values

Perform the following steps to edit the default partition configuration default values, as necessary:

1. Edit the default utility partitioning variable (DT_PARTN_UP), if necessary. Set this variable f you want to install the

Dell utility partition.

2. Edit the default variable value for the default hard drive (DT_HD for Windows and DT_HD for Linux), if applicable.

NOTE: Ensure that the default variable value for DT_HD is set to a valid non‑removable disk, and not to

removable media such as virtual media.

3. Edit the default variable value (DT_DP_SIZE in MB for BIOS mode and DT_DP_SIZE_GPT in MiB for UEFI mode) for

the primary operating system partition, if applicable.

4. Edit the default variable value for file system type ( DT_OS_FSTYPE), if applicable.

NOTE: The valid values are FAT32 and NTFS.

5. If the DT_PARTN_UP variable is set to ON, edit the default variable value (in MB) for the utility partition

(DT_UP_SIZE), if applicable.

6. If the DT_PARTN_UP variable is set to ON, edit the default variable value for the utility partition installation package

location (DT_UP_IMAGE=%DT_SYSTEMS%\UPIMG.BIN for Windows and DT_UP_IMAGE=$dt_systems/

upimg.bin for Linux), if applicable.

NOTE: Edit the UPIMG_BIN variable only if you have changed the name or path of the utility partition

installation package.
