Using a Virtual Folder (.NET IRC only)

This feature enables you to access, browse to, and transfer files from a client to a managed server.
You can mount and dismount a local or networked directory that is accessible through the client.
After you create a virtual image of a folder or directory, the server connects to that image as a
USB storage device, enabling you to browse to the server and transfer the files from the
iLO-generated image to any location on the server.

This feature and many others are part of an iLO licensing package. For more information about
iLO licensing, see the following website:

.

The Virtual Folder is nonbootable and read-only; the mounted folder is static. Changes to the client
file are not replicated in the mounted folder.

To use a Virtual Folder:
1.

Start the .NET IRC.

2.

Select Virtual Drives

→Folder.

The Browse For Folder window opens, as shown in
