pndeploy

Overview

pndeploy is a tool to deploy Pane System Images and create custom installers for mass deployments on a fleet of devices.

Arguments

-I: short for Install, takes a path to a Pane System Image file. (.iso, .psi) -D: short for Disk, specifies the disk to deploy the image on. If only one disk is installed, this may be omitted. -R: short for RAID, configures the image to work on a RAID disk setup. This takes mirror | parity | striped as arguments. -E or --edition-: specify with edition of PaneOS to install. If not specified, it will always deploy PaneOS Professional. -i: standard input. -R: short for Repair, followed by -i and a PaneOS .iso or .psi file, can repair missing system files. To speed up the repair process, let PaneOS identify the missing or corrupt files first, then add the CRFlist.txt file to the command with --crf-list followed by a path¹.
