Deployment Guide

Sample configuration files: \Dell\x64\Toolkit\Template\Configs
The directory \Dell\x32\Toolkit\Systems or \Dell\x64\Toolkit\Systems is a placeholder that can be used for all system information
that is captured using sample scripts and tools (for example, the system specific BIOS) and Baseboard Management Controller
(BMC) configuration files used by the DTK utilities for configuring a system). For more information on the deployment directory
structure, see Setting Up A Directory Structure For Deployment.
Additionally, DTK contains a batch file, extract.bat, which can be used to extract the CAB files of winpe3.x, winpe4.x, winpe5.x, and
winpe 10.x folders.
Extracting DTK components on systems running Linux
DTK components are provided as an ISO image at www.dell.com/support. You can use a CD/DVD burning software to burn the
ISO image on a bootable CD/DVD or loop mount the ISO image to access the image contents. To extract DTK components to a
workstation running a Linux operating system perform the following steps.
1. Download the ISO image dtk_X.X_XXX_Linux.iso from www.dell.com/support and save it on your system (where X is the
latest DTK version and XXX is the latest build for the DTK release).
2. After the image is downloaded, burn it on a CD/DVD.
