Frequently Asked Questions

What prerequisite knowledge and tools are required before starting a deployment using DTK?

You need advanced Windows knowledge, along with AIK/ADK, and working knowledge of deployment systems like RIS/ADS or WDS.

Which BIOS versions are recommended for optimal performance with the Deployment Toolkit?

It is best practice to use the latest ("n") version of BIOS firmware or the "n-1" version that is available on support.dell.com.

What precautions must be taken after making system configuration changes using SYSCFG?

A warm reboot is required after applying syscfg settings changes, and you must immediately reboot if changing the "--redmem" option.

How should I upgrade from a previous version of the DTK toolkit?

When upgrading, you are required to create an environment for the new DTK version separately from your old version because the requirements are different.
