214 Deploying Your Operating System Using VMCLI
5 Run the following command to confirm that support for multiple LUNs
has been added for the number of LUNs that you specified in Step 1:
cat /sys/modules/scsi_mod/max_luns
If the device provides a write-protection capability, use this capability to
ensure that Virtual Media will not write to the media.
Omit this parameter from the command line if you are not virtualizing floppy
media. If an invalid value is detected, an error message displays and the
command terminates.
CD/DVD Device or Image File
-c {< device-name > | < image-file >}
where <device-name> is a valid CD/DVD drive letter (Windows systems) or
a valid CD/DVD device file name (Linux systems) and <image-file> is the
file name and path of a valid ISO-9660 image file.
This parameter specifies the device or file that will supply the virtual
CD/DVD-ROM media:
For example, an image file is specified as:
-c c:\temp\mydvd.img (Windows systems)
-c /tmp/mydvd.img (Linux systems)
For example, a device is specified as:
-c d:\ (Microsoft

Windows

systems)
-c /dev/cdrom (Linux systems)
Omit this parameter from the command line if you are not virtualizing
CD/DVD media. If an invalid value is detected, an error message is listed and
the command terminates.
Specify at least one media type (floppy or CD/DVD drive) with the
command, unless only switch options are provided. Otherwise, an error
message displays and the command terminates and generates an error.
