Dell 4.4 Specifying DTK Installation Paths, Confirming Or Editing DTK Installation Path Variables

Page 44

may require edits in certain situations. These optional edits are discussed in Editing DTK Task Scripts. The TKENVSET.BAT or tkenvset.sh script sets the path of DTK utilities and scripts and sets the variables for the system to be deployed and configured. The variables and paths specified in this file before other supporting scripts are used.

Specifying DTK Installation Paths

The TKENVSET.BAT or tkenvset.sh sample script is provided with the following default values. These values must be confirmed in some cases, and modified in other cases, before a deployment. Locate the Deployment Toolkit Installation Paths heading to find the following lines:

On systems running Windows:

set DT_DRIVE=X:

set DT_PATH=%DT_DRIVE%\Dell\Toolkit set DT_TOOLS=%DT_PATH%\Tools

set DT_SYSTEMS=%DT_PATH%\Systems

set DT_SCRIPTS=%DT_PATH%\Template\Scripts set DT_STOP_ON_ERROR=FALSE

On systems running Linux:

DT_PATH=$dt_drive/opt/dell/toolkit

DT_TOOLS=$dt_path/bin

DT_SYSTEMS=$dt_path/systems

DT_SCRIPTS=$dt_path/template/scripts

DT_STOP_ON_ERROR=FALSE

DT_DRMK=$dt_path/opt/dell/drmk

Confirming Or Editing DTK Installation Path Variables

Perform the following steps to confirm and/or edit the installation path variables:

1.On systems running Windows, set the variable that defines the path to the full set of DTK deployment files (DT_DRIVE). On systems running Windows, this variable is set to X: by default in the sample script. For Windows, this variable is set to X: by default in the sample script. On systems running Linux, this variable is set to $dt_drive/opt/dell/toolkit by default in the sample script. Edit this drive letter to reflect the actual drive letter for DTK deployment files, if necessary.

2.Set the variable that defines the path to the full set of DTK deployment files (DT_PATH). This variable is set to %DT_DRIVE%\Dell\Toolkit (Windows) or $dt_drive/opt/dell/toolkit (Linux) by default in the sample script. Edit this path to reflect the actual location of DTK deployment files, if necessary.

3.Set the variable that defines the directory containing DTK utilities (DT_TOOLS). This variable is set to %DT_PATH%\Tools (Windows) or $dt_path/bin (Linux) by default in the sample script. Edit this path to reflect the actual location of DTK utilities, if necessary.

4.Set the variable that defines the directory containing the configuration files for your Dell systems

(DT_SYSTEMS). This variable is set to %DT_PATH%\Systems (Windows) or $dt_path/systems (Linux) by default in the sample script. Edit this path to add a subdirectory for the Dell system you plan to deploy. For example, $dt_path/systems/peR720.

5.Set the variable that defines the directory containing DTK deployment scripts (DT_SCRIPTS). This variable is set to %DT_PATH%\Template\Scripts (Windows) or $dt_path/template/scripts (Linux) by default in the sample script. Edit this path to reflect the actual location of DTK deployment scripts, if necessary.

6.Set the variable that indicates whether you want the deployment process to exit when any error is returned (DT_STOP_ON_ERROR). This variable is set to FALSE by default in the sample script, indicating that errors are handled by the ERRHNDL.BAT (Windows) or errhndl.sh (Linux) script. Set the value to TRUE only if you want the deployment to exit when any error is returned.
