PARTCFG.BAT
The PARTCFG.BAT sample script creates and populates the Dell utility
partition using UPINIT.BAT and creates the operating system partition on a
specified disk. (See "UPINIT.BAT" for more information about using the
UPINIT.BAT tool.) User input is not required to run this script. The default
variable values used in this script are set in the TKENVSET.BAT scripts.
NOTE:
Ensure that DT_HD is set to the required disk to be configured before you
execute the PARTCFG.BAT script.
Using the DTK Sample Scripts to Capture
Configuration Information in Windows PE
The SYSCFG.EXE and RACADM.EXE utilities can read the source system
configuration and duplicate that configuration on a target system using a
sample DTK script file. These configuration files are used during a full
deployment to configure the target system's BIOS, BMC, and RAC settings.
The following sections provide instructions for using the SYSCAP .BAT and
RACCAP .BAT sample scripts to create configuration files.
Capturing the System BIOS and BMC Configuration With the
SYSCAP.BAT Sample Script
You can replicate the system BIOS and BMC configurations from a source
Dell system to an identical target Dell system (for example, from one
PowerEdge™ 1850 to another PowerEdge 1850).
NOTE:
For the script to complete successfully, the source system must have
access to the network share that includes the prebuilt DTK directory structure.
SYSCAP.BAT
The SYSCAP .BAT sample script captures BIOS and BMC configuration settings
and saves them to a specified location. An optional user input can be passed as a
parameter. You can provide the path or filename as an input to this script.
The default variable values used in this script are set in the script to the correct
default values to perform a scripted deployment. The SYSCAP .BAT script uses
the SYSCFG.EXE utility to retrieve BIOS and BMC configuration settings from
the source system and to save the settings in a file named syscfg.ini in the
Z:\Dell\Toolkit\Systems\<target system> directory.
