Preparing the Directory Structure for Deployment in Embedded Linux
Sample Scripts
Table 7-5 lists sample scripts necessary to perform a scripted deployment.
NOTE:
All DTK scripts are provided as examples only. Many of these sample
scripts must be edited before they can be used in a deployment. Some customers
may need to develop their own scripts entirely from scratch. Customers deploying
multiple systems must provide unique information for each Dell system where
appropriate. For example, system host names, IP addresses, and BIOS asset tags
need to be unique for each system. The batch scripts and configuration files must
be modified to reflect the unique information for each deployed system. Many
options are available to optimize this process. See "Preparing the Script Files for
Deployment Using Embedded Linux" for information about using the sample scripts
to perform a full deployment on supported Dell systems.

errhndl.sh Handles errors returned in the DTK scripts.
lininst.sh Performs an unattended installation of a supported Red Hat Enterprise
Linux Server operating 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.
sysdrmk Used by upinit.sh to patch the boot sector.
sysrep.sh Applies (or replicates) BIOS and BMC configuration settings and
configures the target system.
tkenvset.sh Sets the path of the DTK installation and variables for the specific
system being deployed.
upinit.sh Creates and populates the Dell utility partition.
