Displaying Correct Virtual Drives For Mapping
On a Linux-based management station, the Virtual Media Client window may display removable disks and floppy disks
that are not part of the management station. To make sure that the correct virtual drives are available to map, you must
enable the port setting for the connected SATA hard drive. To do this:
1. Reboot the operating system on the management station. During POST, press <F2> or <F12> to enter System Setup.
2. Go to SATA settings. The port details are displayed.
3. Enable the ports that are actually present and connected to the hard drive.
4. Access the Virtual Media Client window. It displays the correct drives that can be mapped.

Unmapping Virtual Drive
To ummap the virtual drive:
1. From the Virtual Media menu, do any of the following:
– Click the device that you want to unmap.
– Click Disconnect Virtual Media.
A message appears asking for confirmation.
2. Click Yes.
The check mark for that menu item does not appear indicating that it is not mapped to the host server.
Setting Boot Order Through BIOS
Using the System BIOS Settings utility, you can set the managed system to boot from virtual optical drives or virtual
floppy drives.
NOTE: Changing Virtual Media while connected may stop the system boot sequence.
To enable the managed system to boot:
1. Boot the managed system.
2. Press <F2> to enter the System Setup page.
3. Go to System BIOS Settings → Boot Settings → BIOS Boot Settings → Boot Sequence.
In the pop-up window, the virtual optical drives and virtual floppy drives are listed with the standard boot devices.
4. Make sure that the virtual drive is enabled and listed as the first device with bootable media. If required, follow the
on-screen instructions to modify the boot order.
5. Click OK, navigate back to System BIOS Settings page, and click Finish.
6. Click Yes to save the changes and exit.
The managed system reboots.
The managed system attempts to boot from a bootable device based on the boot order. If the virtual device is
connected and a bootable media is present, the system boots to the virtual device. Otherwise, the system overlooks
the device—similar to a physical device without bootable media.
