CFGGEN Utility
The CFGGEN utility is a command line utility that runs in the Linux, EFI, and Windows
Pre-Installation (WinPE) environments. It is a minimally interactive program that you execute
from a command line prompt, or a shell script. The results from invoking this utility are
communicated through the program status value that is returned when the program exits. Use
the CFGGEN utility to create IM storage configurations on SAS controllers. Some CFGGEN
commands work only with SAS adaptors in the EFI environment.
