Using Virtual Media
The virtual media feature allows the user on the client server to map a physical drive on that
machine as a virtual drive on a target device. The client server may also add and map an ISO or
floppy image file as a virtual drive on the target device. You may have one CD or DVD drive
and one mass storage device mapped concurrently.
•
A CD or DVD drive, disk image file (such as an ISO or floppy image file) is mapped as a
virtual CD or DVD drive.
•
A floppy drive, USB memory device or other media type is mapped as a virtual mass
storage device.
For information on configuring virtual media settings using the on-board web interface, see
Configuring Virtual Media on page 55.
Requirements
The target device must be connected to the KVM switch and with an IQ module that both
support virtual media.
The target device must be intrinsically able to use the types of USB2-compatible media that
you virtually map. In other words, if the target device does not support a portable USB memory
device, you cannot map that on the client server as a virtual media drive on the target device.
The user (or user group to which the user belongs) must have permission to establish virtual
media sessions and/or reserved virtual media sessions to the target device. See Access levels on
page 53.
Only one virtual media session may be active to a target device at one time.
Sharing and preemption considerations
The KVM and virtual media sessions are separate; therefore, there are many options for sharing,
reserving or preempting sessions. The DSView 3 software has the flexibility to accommodate
