Sample Scripts For Systems Running Linux, Partcfg.Bat | Dell 4.4

Toolkit Components	Purpose

PARTCFG.BAT	Creates and populates the Dell utility partition and
	creates the operating system partition on a
	specified hard drive. The script cleans out all
	existing partitions on your system before creating
	and populating the partition.
RACCAP.BAT	Captures Remote Access Controller (RAC) settings
	to a file for DRAC 4 remote access controllers.
RACREP.BAT	Applies (replicates) the RAC settings saved in a file
	to the target system.
RAIDCAP.BAT	Captures the RAID settings and saves them to a
	file.
RAIDCFG.BAT	Configures the selected RAID controllers on the
	system.
RAIDREP.BAT	Applies (replicates) RAID settings saved in a file to
	the target system.
SYSCAP.BAT	Captures BIOS and BMC configuration settings and
	saves them to a file.
SYSREP.BAT	Applies (replicates) BIOS and BMC configuration
	settings and configures the target system.
TKENVSET.BAT	Sets the path of DTK installation and variables for
	the specific system being deployed.
UPINIT.BAT	Creates and populates the Dell utility partition.

Sample Scripts For Systems Running Linux

The following table lists Linux sample scripts necessary to perform a scripted deployment.

NOTE: All DTK scripts are provided as examples only. The batch scripts and configuration files must be modified to reflect the unique information for each deployed system.

Toolkit Components	Purpose

errhndl.sh	Handles errors returned in DTK scripts.
lininst.sh	Performs an unattended installation of a supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux
	Server operating system.
partcfg.sh	Creates and populates the Dell utility partition and creates the deployment
	partition on a specified hard drive. Before doing so, however, this script cleans
	out all existing partitions in your system.
raccap.sh	Captures RAC settings to a file.
racrep.sh	Applies (replicates) the RAC settings saved in a file to the target system.
raidcfg.sh	Configures all RAID controllers detected in a system.
suseinst.sh	Performs an unattended installation of a supported SUSE Linux Enterprise
	Server operating system.
syscap.sh	Captures BIOS and BMC configuration settings and saves them to a file.
