Configuring Virtual Media Remotely
Virtual media can also be configured using the on-board web interface. The
on-board web interface includes options similar to those in the OSCAR
interface. Users can enable or disable virtual media on any server on a per SIP
basis. This control is also maintained in the appliance after a power cycle.
Enabling/Disabling Virtual Media Using the On-board Web Interface
The on-board web interface virtual media configuration screen displays the
EID, name, and connection path of each virtual media SIP, as well as a check
box that controls whether virtual media is enabled or disabled for that
individual SIP.
Mass Storage
Allows virtual media sessions to the first detected mass storage
drive. Enable this checkbox to establish a virtual media mass storage
connection to a server. Disable to end a virtual media mass storage
connection to a server.
Write Access
Allows a target server to write data to the virtual media during a
virtual media session. Read access is always allowed during a virtual
media session.
