Command Syntax Overview
Syntax refers to the way a command and its parameters are entered. Dell OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK) Command Line
Interface (CLI) commands can be arranged in any order as long as they conform to the basic command line syntax.
DTK Utilities General Usage
The following table lists the general usage models of the DTK utilities:
Table 2. DTK Utilities
Utilities Usage
SYSCFG
syscfg --option1=[arg1] ... --optionX=[argX]
or
syscfg bmcoption1 --bmcsuboption1=[arg1]...--
bmcsuboptionX=argX]
RAIDCFG
raidcfg [mandatory options] <optional arguments>
RACADM
racadm <options> <subcommand> <subcommand_options>
NOTE: The Command Line Reference Guide for iDRAC6 and CMC available
on dell.com/support/manuals provides information about the RACADM
subcommands, supported interfaces, property database groups and object
denitions for iDRAC6 and CMC.
UPINIT For WinPE:
upinit --disk=0 --size=32 --file=t:\upimage.bin
For Linux:
upinit --disk=/dev/sda --size=32 --file=/tmp/upimage.bin
The DTK command line switches, conguration le formatting, and error reporting follow similar style and behavior. However,
individual DTK utilities can sometimes dier from one another in signicant ways. You must familiarize yourself with the command
line syntax and utility-specic options and arguments for each utility before using DTK.
NOTE: Some of the command line options in DTK are followed by an asterisk. Such options are used for reporting
purposes only.
Command Line Syntax
The following table lists the generic command line characters and arguments present in the command line options with a short
description of these characters.
