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 drive and one mass storage device mapped
concurrently.
• A CD/DVD drive, disk image file (such as an ISO or floppy image file) is
mapped as a virtual CD/DVD-ROM 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 OBWI, see "Virtual
media" on page 31.
Requirements
The target device must support virtual media and be connected to the KVM switch
with a KVM s4 Adapter USB20-VGA adapter cable.
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 "User Accounts" on page 35.
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 the system needs.
For example, the KVM and virtual media sessions may be locked together. In this
mode, when a KVM session is disconnected, so is the associated virtual media
session. If the sessions are not locked together, the KVM session can be closed
but the virtual media session will remain active. This could be desirable if a user
