CFGGEN Utility
The
cfggen
utility is a command line utility that runs in the Linux, EFI, and Windows Pre-Installation

The results from invoking this utility are communicated through the program status value that is
returned when the program exits.

utility to create IM storage configurations on SAS controllers. Some
cfggen
commands work only with SAS adapters in the EFI environment.
