Downloading Seamless package

The DTK seamless package is a single installer package which carries Linux DTK RPMs (RHEL, SLES) and its dependency. Seamless

tools on Linux post operating system. The size of the DTK tools seamless package is less (60MB) compared to that of the complete OM

DVD contents size.

Upgrading your DTK version

When upgrading from a previous release of DTK, ensure that you create the environment for new DTK version separately from the

previous version. This step is necessary because the environments and requirements for the new DTK versions are completely different.
