Frequently Asked Questions

Is the OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK) still supported?

Yes, but certain utilities will be deprecated starting with version 6.1 or later, including RAIDCFG, SYSCFG, ELI tool, and UPINIT.

How can I install DTK tools on a Linux system?

You can use the 'seamless package' designed to automatically recognize the OS type and install utilities like SYSCFG, RAIDCFG, and RACADM posts-OS installation. For non-interactive use, run: ./DTKTOOLS_<release version>_Linux64_<build number>.Bin -f.

What should I do if I need to upgrade my DTK version?

When upgrading, you must create the environment for the new DTK version entirely separate from your previous installation due to different requirements and environments.
