Adding a virtual media device

The LO100 virtual media option provides you with a virtual media drive, which can direct a remote host
server to boot and use standard media from anywhere on the network. Virtual media devices are
available while the host system boots.

To add a new virtual media device, click Add on the Virtual Media page. The Add Virtual Media window
appears. This window has the following options:

•

The Look In list enables you to change your directory or drive.

•

The Virtual Media Type list enables you to specify the file type that you want to share. You must
declare a Virtual Media Type before LO100 recognizes they type of device it is sharing.

•

The File Name textbox is the shared name of the image.

•

Select a value from the Files of Type list to select the files you want to share.

Shared virtual media devices

You can share a virtual media device from the Storage Devices window. Only one device may be shared
at a time.
