1.STARTDEPLOY.CMD is a script file that is executed by STARTNET.CMD in Windows PE. Edit the STARTDEPLOY.CMD file to modify the environment variables to match the locations of the utilities and data files specific to your deployment infrastructure. You must customize this file for your environment. In the following example, bold lines indicate information that must be modified for your environment.

The STARTDEPLOY.CMD file is similar to the following:

rem @echo off

REM

REM This is the first Script called from Startnet.cmd stub in the WinPE

REM

REM Make sure that the network is fully started...

REM Sometimes it requires a bit of time ipconfig

REM Map a drive to the share you are working from.

REM If none ignore this step and set the drive letter in REM the following statements to appropriate drive REM============================================================ set Tools=s:\tkdemoarea\HP\Tools

set MSTools=X:\i386\system32

set GlobalData=s:\tkdemoarea\HP\DeploymentScripts\datafiles set MSDistribution=s:\tkdemoarea\w2k3entsp1

set HPQFlatFiles=s:\tkdemoarea\hpqflatfiles set HPQComponents=s:\tkdemoarea\ntcsp

set SystemScripts=s:\tkdemoarea\HP\DeploymentScripts REM============================================================ net start sysmgmt

REM Call the first Script

call %SystemScripts%\ServerDetect.cmd

echo Done!

2.If needed, modify the SERVERDETECT.CMD file for your specific environment. This file is provided in the samples subdirectory. SERVERDETECT.CMD does not accept any arguments. It runs the HWDISCOVERY utility to determine the server type and then executes a typical deployment script (DEPLOYSERVER.CMD).

3.Edit the DEPLOYSERVER.CMD file for your specific environment.

NOTE: The IFHW and HWQUERY utilities can be used to assist in customizing the DEPLOYSERVER.CMD script for your environment. For more information about these utilities, refer to the HP SmartStart Scripting Toolkit Linux and Win32 Editions User Guide.

The DEPLOYSERVER.CMD file is similar to the following:

rem @echo off cls

echo [ SCRIPT FOR REMOTE INSTALL OF W2K3 ON TYPICAL SERVER ]

pause

echo Retrieving State Information...

%Tools%\System\statemgr /r phase

if errorlevel 3 goto State3 if errorlevel 2 goto State2 if errorlevel 1 goto State1
