Dell OpenManage Deployment Toolkit - shawfdong/hyades GitHub Wiki
Dell OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK) includes a set of utilities, sample scripts, and sample configuration files that you can use to deploy and configure the Dell systems[1]. DTK contains utilities that allow you to configure the BIOS, Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), Remote Access Controller (RAC), RAID controllers, and hard-drive partitions on supported Dell systems[2]:
- syscfg: System Configuration Utility;
- raidcfg: RAID Configuration Utility that reports and sets RAID configuration options;
- racadm: RAC Configuration Utility that reports and sets RAC configuration options for Dell Remote Access Controller DRAC5, iDRAC6, and iDRAC7;
- upinit: Disk Partitioning Utility that creates, formats, and populates a Dell Utility Partition. We have no use for upinit.

The raidcfg utility is used to configure and report RAID-related information for supported RAID controllers. The utility abstracts any hardware differences in the RAID controllers and allows administrators to use standardized command-line interface (CLI) commands across all supported controllers on supported PowerEdge systems[3].
Install raidcfg:
# yum install raidcfg
Displays help and usage information of raidcfg:
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg -h
Lists all controllers on the host:
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg controlleror
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg -ctrl
On Pleiades, the output is:
Controller_ID/Slot_ID: 0 Controller_PCI_ID: 2:14:0 Controller_Name: PERC 5/i Integrated Channels: 2 No.of Virtual_Disks: 1 Array_Disks: 0:0:1,0:1:1,0:2:1,0:3:1 Firmware Version: 5.2.2-0072 Preserved Cache: Not Available T10 Protection Info Capable: No Encryption Capable: No Encryption Key Present: Not Applicable
Display the physical disks attached to controller specified:
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg pdisk controllerid=0or
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg -pd -c=0
List all the virtual disks under the indicated controllers:
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg vdisk controllerid=0or
# /opt/dell/toolkit/bin/raidcfg -vd -c=0NOTE raidcfg doesn't appear to require /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/srvadmin-services.sh to be started to function.
