Release Type and Definition Deployment ToolKit The Dell OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK) includes a set of utilities, scripts, and sample configuration files that to deploy and your Dell system. You can use DTK to build script-based and RPM-based installation for deploying large number of systems on a preoperating system environment in a reliable way, without changing their current deployment processes.
• Network access • A target system with a CD/DVD drive if you are performing a local deployment or network access if you are performing a network deployment. • All Deployment Toolkit utilities, sample scripts, and sample configuration files. • All required Windows PE drivers, operating system drivers, and the Dell utility partition image file. • A minimum BIOS version is recommended on some of the platforms for all the DTK options to work correctly.
This DTK product carries GNU Bash update packages to fix the Shellshock vulnerability (CVE-20147169 and CVE-2014-6271). SYSCFG • Some options may not be present on all systems, which may be due to the BIOS version or hardware feature set. The usage information generated by running SYSCFG without arguments shows only those options that are valid for your system. • The "--devseq" option is present only if you have an available, bootable hard-disk partition.
• The legacy attribute values enable and disable are also supported for 12G systems for backward compatibility. In future releases, these arguments might be deprecated. Try to use the values shown in help message for BIOS options for 12G server. RAIDCFG Issues • You can assign up to 10 Global hot spares using Raidcfg. Use the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management for assigning more than 10 Global hot spares.
some customers may need to develop their own scripts entirely from scratch. Customers deploying multiple systems need to provide unique information for each server when appropriate. For example, system host names, IP addresses, and BIOS asset tags need to be unique for each system. Modify the batch scripts and configuration files to reflect the unique information for each system being deployed. Many options are available to optimize this process.
