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 the CFGGEN utility to create IM storage configurations on SAS
controllers. Some CFGGEN commands work only with SAS adaptors in the EFI environment.
Starting CFGGEN
The CFGGEN utility is located on the HP IPF Offline Diagnostic and Utilities CD. To use CFGGEN, follow these
steps:
Step 1. Insert the CD into the drive.
Step 2. Boot the system to the EFI Shell prompt.
Step 3. From the EFI Shell prompt, change to the CD drive.
shell> fs0: Enter
fs0:\>
Step 4. Change to the directory that contains cfggen.efi.
fs0:\> cd EFI\HP\TOOLS\NETWORK Enter
fs0: EFI\HP\TOOLS\NETWORK>
From this directory use CFGGEN.
