a task.

Deployment Solution for Dell provides several predefined task types under the
DTK folder.
See
"About deployment tasks and jobs for Dell servers"
The Simple tasks limit the options that you can change. However, you don t need
to know the exact command or any of the configuration file information for each
option.
The Advanced tasks capture the complete configuration file that exists on the
specified server and let you see every setting in it. For the BIOS interfaces and
the DRAC cards, you can change every setting separately. The tasks for configuring
RAID work in a different manner.
