Mounting an ISO file

An ISO image (.iso) is a disk image of an ISO 9660 file system, and refers to any optical disc image, even a UDF image. In addition to the data files in the ISO image, it also contains all the file system metadata, including boot code, structures, and attributes. All of this information is contained in a single file. These properties make it an attractive alternative to physical media for the distribution of software that requires this additional information as it is simple to retrieve over the Internet.

To mount an ISO file, click “Mount ISO File”, locate the file, and mount it.

Things to know about operation of the virtual media

Because virtual media emulates USB 1.1 over a TCP connection, it has a number of limitations that govern the virtual-media compatibility

and operation.

Virtual media emulates USB 1.1. It doesn’t emulate USB 2.0.

Virtual media redirects the client’s local DVD/CD or removable mass storage devices to a target server during the open client session only. This means if the remote client session disconnects, the mounted drives will be automatically dismounted from the target server.

Maximum data transfer speed of the virtual media doesn’t exceed 5.0Mbps.

Only drives identified by the client’s operating system as drives with removable storage can be mounted as virtual media. Many USB-attached hard disks identify themselves to the operating system as hard-disk drives and can’t be used for virtual-media mounting.

Booting from a mounted virtual-media drive is possible only if the target server supports booting from USB-attached storage.

Currently, it is not possible to boot a target server from Linux distribution mounted as virtual media.

Windows CD/DVD, or its modifications such as Winternals ERD Commander, WinPE, BartPE, or similar, can be used for booting the target server when mounted as virtual media.

Mounting removable mass storage devices such as USB flash drives (disk on key tokens) or miscellaneous USB memory sticks/ cards will remove them from the client’s operating system and redirect them with read/write access permissions to the target server to ensure the integrity of write operation.

Connection timeout will not occur at the time the virtual media remains mounted.
