The cfggen Utility

The cfggen utility is a command line utility that runs in the Linux, EFI, and Windows
Pre-Installation (WinPE) environments. It is a minimally interactive program that you execute
from a command line prompt, or a shell script. The results from invoking this utility are
communicated through the program status value that is returned when the program exits. Use
cfggen to create IM storage configurations on SAS controllers. Some cfggen commands work
only with SAS adapters in the EFI environment.
