NOTE: To view CCTK documentation, click Start Program Files Dell CCTK User’s Guide Online.


Important InformationCCTK requires Hardware Application Programming Interface version 5.9.2 (HAPI) or later installed on the system where you run the CCTK commands. If your system does not have HAPI installed, CCTK automatically installs HAPI when you run a CCTK command. After the option is configured, HAPI is uninstalled. If the system has an older version of HAPI, when you run a CCTK command, HAPI is automatically upgraded to the latest version. In this scenario, HAPI will not be downgraded to the earlier version. If you want to run the CCTK commands frequently, it is recommended that you install HAPI on the system before you execute CCTK commands. To install HAPI, navigate to the HAPI directory in \X86 directory for 32-bit and \X86_64 directory for 64-bit, and run HAPIInstall.bat.

Uninstalling CCTKUninstalling CCTK removes all CCTK-related directories from your system.

NOTE: Uninstalling CCTK will not uninstall HAPI. To uninstall HAPI, navigate to the HAPI directory and run HAPIUninstall.bat.

To uninstall CCTK, perform any one of the following:

• Click Start Programs Dell CCTK Uninstall.

• Click Start Settings Control Panel Add or Remove Programs. Select Dell Client Configuration Toolkit and click Remove.

Creating a Bootable Image Using Windows PE For client systems that do not have an operating system installed, you can create a bootable image that contains CCTK to run the CCTK commands on Windows Pre-installation Environment 2.0 (Windows PE) or Windows PE 3.0. Windows PE provides a standalone pre-installation environment that is used to prepare a system for Windows installation. Use Microsoft Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows AIK) to create a Windows PE image.

Creating a Bootable Image Using Windows PE 2.0Using Windows PE 2.0, you can integrate CCTK, HAPI, and related drivers into a Windows Imaging Format (WIM) file. You can use the WIM file to create a bootable ISO image.


To create a bootable image using Windows PE 2.0:

1 Download Microsoft Windows AIK from the Microsoft website.

2 Install AIK.

3 Download DELL_CCTK_version_Xrev/Arev_releaseid.exe installation file from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com and extract it.

4 Double-click cctk.msi and follow the instructions.

5 Integrate the CCTK directory structure in a WIM file using the following steps:

CCTK provides the cctk_x86_winpe.bat and cctk_x86_64_winpe.bat scripts to integrate CCTK, HAPI, and related Dell drivers into the WIM file.

a Navigate to the directory where the script is located. By default, the script for 32-bit systems is located in the cctk\X86 directory. The script for 64-bit systems is located in the cctk\X86_64 directory.

b Run the appropriate script with the .wim file and CCTK directory locations entered as two arguments:

cctk_winpe.bat <path_of_wim_file> <path_of_cctk>

If CCTK is installed on the default directory, run the 32-bit system script as follows:

cctk_x86_winpe.bat C:\winPE_x86 C:\Progra~1\Dell\CCTK

If CCTK is installed on the default directory, run the 64-bit system script as follows:

cctk_x86_64_winpe.bat C:\winPE_x86_64 C:\Progra~2\Dell\CCTK

A .wim file, winpe.wim, is created in the location that you provided. The files required to create the bootable ISO image file are also created in the same location.

c Rename the <path_of_wim_file>\winpe.wim file as boot.wim.

d Overwrite the <path_of_wim_file>\ISO\sources\boot.wim file with the <path_of_wim_file>\boot.wim file.


Example:

copy c:\winPE_x86\boot.wim c:\winPE_x86\ISO\sources\boot.wim

6 Create a bootable Windows PE image using Windows AIK.

a Click Start Programs Microsoft Windows AIK Windows PE Tools Command Prompt.

NOTE: If you want to prepare a bootable image for a 64-bit supported system, from the command prompt, navigate to the <AIK_installation_directory>\Windows AIK\Tools\amd64 directory.

b Run the following command:

oscdimg –n –b<path_of_wim_file>\etfsboot.com <path_of_wim_file>\ISO <path_of_wim_file\image_file_name.iso>

Example:

oscdimg –n –bc:\winPE_x86\etfsboot.com c:\winPE_x86\ISO c:\winPE_x86\WinPE2.0.iso

This command creates a bootable ISO image, WinPE2.0.iso, in the WIM file directory.

Creating a Bootable Image Using Windows PE 3.0Using Windows PE 3.0, you can integrate CCTK, HAPI, and related drivers directly into a bootable ISO image.

To create a bootable image using Windows PE 3.0:

1 Download Microsoft Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) from the Microsoft website.

2 Install AIK.

3 Download DELL_CCTK_version_Xrev/Arev_releaseid.exe installation file from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com and extract it.

4 Double-click cctk.msi and follow the instructions.


5 Integrate the CCTK directory structure to an ISO file using the following steps:

CCTK provides the cctk_x86_winpe_3.bat and cctk_x86_64_winpe_3.bat scripts to integrate CCTK, HAPI, and related Dell drivers into the ISO image.

a Navigate to the directory where the script is located. By default, the script for 32-bit systems is located in the cctk\X86 directory. The script for 64-bit systems is located in the cctk\X86_64 directory.

b If you installed AIK in a non-default directory, open the script, set the AIKTOOLS path, and save the file.

For example:

Set AIKTOOLS=C:\WINAIK\Tools

c Run the script with the path where you want to create the ISO file and the CCTK installation directory as two arguments.

NOTE: The directory you specify for the ISO image should not be an existing directory.

Example for a 32-bit system:

cctk_x86_WinPE_3.bat C:\winPE_x86 C:\Progra~1\Dell\CCTK

Example for a 64-bit system:

cctk_x86_64_WinPE_3.bat C:\winPE_x86 C:\Progra~2\Dell\CCTK

This creates a directory, winPE_x86. The ISO image and the WIM file are created inside the WIM directory under winPE_x86.


Running CCTK Commands Using a Bootable ImageTo run CCTK commands using a bootable image:

1 Burn a CD with the ISO image and boot the system that you want to configure from the CD.

2 Navigate to the cctk\x86 or cctk\x86_64 directory to run the CCTK commands.


Upgrading CCTKTo upgrade CCTK 1.1 and CCTK 1.0.1 to CCTK 1.2.1:

1 Download the latest CCTK self-extractable zip (SEZ) installation file, DELL_CCTK_version_Xrev/Arev_releaseid.exe.

30 CCTK Options

Help OptionThe -h and --help options display general usage information for the utility. If the argument matches a valid option, that usage information of the option is displayed. If the option has arguments, the arguments are displayed, separated by a | character. If the argument does not match a valid option, a usage error is given (and usage information is displayed).

Error Checking and Error MessagesThe CCTK utilities check your commands for correct syntax when you enter them. Unrecognized or invalid options and arguments result in a usage error that displays the CCTK utility name and version along with the message.

CCTK OptionsCCTK options can be divided into types:

• General options: apply to all systems

• BIOS options: apply only if a BIOS of the system supports them

NOTE: If you are running CCTK commands on Windows Vista or later, you must run the commands with the administrator privileges. Running the command displays a pop-up window where you can enter the administrator ID and password.

NOTE: If you run CCTK commands on Windows Vista or later without administrator privileges, it displays the following error message: 'admin/root' privileges required to execute this application.

CCTK General Options

NOTE: Some of the options in CCTK are followed by an asterisk. These options do not accept any suboptions or arguments. The values associated with these options are those that are reported by the BIOS. You cannot modify these values.

CCTK Options 31

-h or --help

Valid Argumentnone or <valid option name>

DescriptionWithout an argument, this option displays general usage information for the utility. If the argument matches a valid option, the usage information of the option is displayed. If the option has arguments, the arguments are displayed, separated by a | character. If the option has suboptions, all suboptions, valid arguments, and a description are listed. If the argument does not match a valid option, a usage error is given (and usage information is displayed).

Example

C:\>cctk -h --asfmode

asfmode: Sets the asf (alert standard format) mode. DASH and ASF 2.0 set enables LOM to have DASH and ASF 2.0 functionality.

Arguments: off | on | alertonly

-i or --infile

Valid Argument<filename>

DescriptionDirects the CCTK utility to take input from a .ini file. The utility searches the file for a section heading identical to the utility name. An error is returned if the file or section is not found. If the section is found, each name/value pair is applied to the system. The names must match a valid option, and the arguments must be in the proper format for the option. If an option is not available on a system and it is specified in a file, the utility ignores the option. If any errors are found in the format of the names or values, that option is skipped. The remaining options are applied to the system.

32 CCTK Options

If this option is used with other function command options, they are applied in the order in which they appear on the command line, overriding any previous commands.

In the .ini file, bootorder is displayed as a list of comma separated device short forms in the order they are assigned.

For example:

bootorder=+pcmcia,+hdd.1,-floppy,+cdrom,-hdd.2,+nic.1,-hdd.3,+nic.2

A plus (+) symbol with the device name indicates that the device is enabled and a minus (-) symbol indicates that the device is disabled. You can enable or disable the devices by changing the + or - symbol displayed with the device short name. These symbols are optional and if not present, the current status of the device is retained.

Change the boot order by changing the order of the list. You can also enter the device number instead of the device name.

NOTE: The bootorder option in the .ini file is applied to a system based on its active boot list. If the .ini file is generated from a system with the active boot list set as uefi, and it is applied on a system with the active boot list set as legacy, the boot order is set only if the devices are available in the system. It is recommended that you apply the .ini file on a system with the same active boot list as of the system from where the .ini file is generated.

Example

C:\>cctk -i <c:/cctk>/filename.ini

-l or --logfile


DescriptionLogs the command line output to a time-stamped file. The utility either appends the information to an existing log file or creates a new file. The log file contains the same information as the standard output, plus timestamp information. Users should use this option instead of redirection for task diagnosis.

CCTK Options 33

Example

C:\>cctk -l <c:/cctk>/logfile

No option

Valid ArgumentNA

DescriptionIf an option is not given, the CCTK utility outputs usage information. The usage information is displayed in the format shown below.

Usage: cctk --option[=argument]

For more information about a particular command,

use the option '-h' followed by the command name.

Example: cctk -h --asset

-o or --outfile


DescriptionWrites all BIOS options, that you can replicate to the BIOS of another system, to the specified filename. The file name you specify should have .ini extension and it is created in the default installation directory. The format of the output is in a .ini format, with the utility name as the section header. If a file with the same name already exists, the information is appended to the file. If this option is used with other function

34 CCTK Options

commands, the commands are applied in the order in which they appear. This option captures replicable BIOS options. The file is created in the directory where you run the CCTK command.

In the .ini file, bootorder is displayed as a list of comma separated device short forms in the order they are assigned. A plus (+) symbol with the device name indicates that the device is enabled and a minus (- )symbol indicates that the device is disabled. Change the boot order by changing the order of the list. You can also enter the device number instead of the device name.

You can enable or disable the devices by changing the + or - symbol displayed with the device. These symbols are optional and if not present, the current status of the device is retained.

NOTE: The bootorder option in the .ini file is applied to a system based on its active boot list. If the .ini file is generated from a system with the active boot list set as uefi, and it is applied on a system with the active boot lis set as legacy, the boot order is set only if the devices are available in the system. It is recommended that you apply the .ini file on a system with the same active boot list as of the system from where the .ini file is generated.

Example

C:\>cctk -o <c:/cctk>/filename.ini

--propowntag

Valid ArgumentNA

DescriptionSets the Dell property ownership tag. If an option is not given, CCTK reports the current property ownership tag.

NOTE: The maximum length of property ownership tag is 80 characters for desktops and 48 characters for laptops.

PCI Reporting The scan of the PCI bus will use a file to resolve PCI vendor and device codes to vendor information strings. The format of the PCI output is as follows:


Vendor: 8086 - Intel Corp.

Device: 1229 - 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]

Sub Vendor:8086 - Intel Corp.

Sub Device:1017 - EtherExpress PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adapter

Slot: 01

Class: 02 - Network

SubClass: 00 - Ethernet

If the file for vendor resolution is not present, the utility will print Unknown next to a vendor name. If the file for environment variable names is not present, the utility will fail the environment variable operation.

The pci.ids file is located at \DELL\CCTK on Windows systems and /opt/dell/toolkit/bin on Linux systems.

TPM ActivationTrusted Platform Module (TPM) is an industry standard cryptographic module that provides attestation, integrity metrics and reporting, and a secure key hierarchy. Dell client systems use TPM to verify whether the system’s state has changed between two boot cycles.

Do the following to activate TPM:

1 If not set, set up the BIOS password.

cctk --setuppwd=<new-BIOS-password>

2 Enable TPM.

cctk --tpm=on --valsetuppwd=<BIOS-password>

3 Activate TPM.

cctk --tpmactivation=activate --valsetuppwd=<BIOS-password>

4 Reboot the system without interruption till the operating system loads.

5Troubleshooting CCTKThis section describes how to troubleshoot while running Dell Client Configuration Toolkit (CCTK).

Running CCTK Displays Error MessagesIf you get any of the following error messages, uninstall and reinstall HAPI: Required BIOS interface not found or HAPI load error.

Running CCTK on 32-bit and 64-bit Supported SystemEnsure that you are running CCTK.exe based on the architecture of the system. If you are running CCTK in a 32-bit supported system, in the installation directory, navigate to the X86 directory and run CCTK commands. If you are running CCTK.exe on a 64-bit supported system, navigate to the x86_64 directory, and run CCTK commands.

If you are running CCTK for 32-bit supported systems on a 64-bit supported system, the following error message is displayed: HAPI Driver Load Error.

If you are running CCTK for 64-bit supported systems on a 32-bit supported system, the following error message is displayed: Not a valid Win32 application.

Running CCTK on Windows Vista or Windows 7 When User Account Control is EnabledIf you are running CCTK on a Windows Vista system or later on which User Account Control (UAC) is enabled, run CCTK as an administrator. In a command shell, run the commands as an Administrator.

NOTE: On a Windows Vista system or Windows 7, if UAC is enabled, a user with administrator privilege cannot install or uninstall CCTK in the silent mode.

Troubleshooting CCTK 135

1

Running CCTK on LinuxWhen you install CCTK on a Linux system, the entry, modprobe dcdbas, is added in the /etc/rc.modules file. After uninstalling CCTK, this entry will not be removed.

While Applying the .ini FileWhen you apply the .ini file generated using CCTK 1.0.1 on a system using CCTK 1.1, the wakeonlan option may fail to set. Verify whether you have set the wakeonlan option to bootseq or network. bootseq and network are not valid arguments for wakeonlan in CCTK 1.1. These arguments are available with the wakeonlanbootovrd option. The corresponding arguments are enable and disable respectively. Edit the .ini file to correct the same.
