RILOE II Virtual CD-ROM
RILOE II Virtual CD-ROM is available at server boot time for operating systems specified in the "Operating
system USB support (on page
57 )" section. Booting from RILOE II Virtual CD-ROM enables you to deploy
an operating system from network drives, and perform disaster recovery of failed operating systems,
among other tasks.
If the host server operating system supports USB mass storage devices, then RILOE II Virtual CD-ROM is
also available after the host server operating system loads. You can use RILOE II Virtual CD-ROM when
the host server operating system is running to upgrade device drivers, install software, and perform other
tasks. Having the Virtual CD-ROM available when the server is running can be especially useful if you
must diagnose and repair a problem with the NIC driver.
The Virtual CD-ROM can be the physical CD-ROM drive on which you are running the web browser, or
an image file stored on your local hard drive or network drive.
NOTE: For best performance use image files. HP recommends using local image files stored either on the
hard drive of your client PC or on a network drive accessible through a high-speed network link.
To use a physical CD-ROM drive in your client PC:
1. Select Local CD-ROM Drive.
2. Select the drive letter of the desired physical CD-ROM drive on your client PC from the dropdown
menu.
