6. Mount the network share:
mkdir /mnt/toolkit_share
mount -t nfs -o rw,nolock :/path/to/toolkit
/mnt/toolkit_share
7. Capture a hardware discovery report using the HPDISCOVERY utility:
cd /mnt/toolkit_share/utilities
./hpdiscovery -f /mnt/toolkit_share/data_files/hpdiscovery.xml
8. Capture the system BIOS configuration using the CONREP utility:
cd /mnt/toolkit_share/utilities
./conrep -s -f/mnt/toolkit_share/data_files/conrep.dat
9. Capture the Smart Array configuration using the ACU utility:
cd /mnt/toolkit_share/utilities/hpacuscripting
./hpacuscripting -c /mnt/toolkit_share/data_files/hpacuscripting.dat
10. Capture the iLO configuration using the HPONCFG utility:
cd /mnt/toolkit_share/utilities
./hponcfg -w /mnt/toolkit_share/data_files/hponcfg.dat
11. Edit the iLO configuration report to create an iLO configuration script:
vi /mnt/toolkit_share/data_files/hponcfg.dat
Unmount the network share
umount /mnt/toolkit_share
12. Reboot the source server, and then eject the Toolkit CD.
Creating an ISO image to be written to CD
The mkisofs command is used to create an ISO image. The following table describes the arguments used
with this command.
Argument Description
-o linuxbootCD.iso This argument is the output of the mkisofs
command, the ISO file.
-b isolinux/isolinux.bin This argument sets isolinux.bin as the
bootloader.
-V LinuxBootCD This argument sets the volume label of the CD.
./linuxbootCD This argument specifies the target directory
that will be the root of the CD.
To create the ISO image, execute the following command at the shell prompt:
mkisofs -J -iso-level 3 -R -L -o linuxbootCD.iso \
-b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat \
-V LinuxBootCD \
-no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 \
