Virtual Media Considered a USB Device
Virtual media will be considered as a USB device, and will be listed as CD-ROM
device. This setting will over-rule the CD-ROM currently set.
Enable Virtual CD-ROM During Bootup
In order to enable virtual CD-ROM during bootup:
▼ Enabling Virtual CD-ROM During Bootup
1. Press F2 to enter into BIOS menu.
2. Select Boot -> CD/DVD Drives.
3. Select Virtual CDROM as the first drive.
OS Installation Over a Remote Console Requires
Unmount and Remount of the Virtual CD-ROM
When installing an operating system remotely using an RKVMS session, each CD
request from an installation requires the user to unmount and mount the virtual CD-
ROM. When a virtual CD is ejected, the OS treats it as a USB device removal, and the
CD must be mounted again to continue the installation.
OS Installation Stops During a Remount of the CD-ROM
The remounting of the CD during an operating system installation causes an error
and the OS cannot access the CD. This will be fixed in a future release.
