○ Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
For Linux, the DTK utilities support deploying the following operating systems in BIOS and UEFI mode:
● SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 (64-bit)
● SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP4 (64–bit)
● Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 (64-bit)
● Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.8 (64-bit)
● CentOS 7.3 (64-bit)
NOTE: CentOS deployment is supported only on DSS1510, DSS1500, DSS2500 platforms.
You can install the DTK Linux RPM utilities on the following operating systems in BIOS and UEFI mode:
● SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 (64-bit)
● SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP4 (64–bit)
● Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 (64-bit)
● Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.8 (64-bit)
NOTE: The RPMs are available in the RPMs folder of DTK ELI ISO at linux.dell.com/repo/hardware, and also in
the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD.
Toolkit Utilities
DTK contains utilities that allow you to configure the BIOS, Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), Remote Access
Controller (RAC), RAID controllers, and hard-drive partitions on supported Dell systems. Additionally, the utilities can be
integrated with the sample files provided with the toolkit to fully configure one-to-many target systems in a scripted mass
system deployment.
System Configuration Utility
The SYSCFG utility performs the following tasks:
● Reports and sets BIOS configuration options.
● Reports and sets BMC/RAC configuration options.
● Reports and sets user-configurable states.
● Reports system information, including PCI device detection.
RAID Configuration Utility
The RAIDCFG utility reports and sets RAID configuration options.
RAC Configuration Utility
The RACADM utility reports and sets RAC configuration options for Dell Remote Access Controller DRAC 5, iDRAC6, and
iDRAC7, and iDRAC8.
Disk Partitioning Utility
The UPINIT script creates, formats, and populates a Dell Utility Partition.
