Executing the Remote Storage server as a service

The following points should be noted

–The image file can be located either on a computer in the network or on the same host on which the Remote Storage server is running.

IIf the image file is not on the computer on which the Remote Storage server is running, you must specify the path of the image file in UNC notation. You also need a user account with access permissions on the image file.

–When the host on which the Remote Storage server is located is booted, the remote storage server starts automatically. The Remote Storage server is then executed until it is explicitly terminated or the host is shut down.

–When the host on which the Remote Storage server is located is booted, the image file becomes available automatically.

Executing the Remote Storage server as a stand-alone program

The following points should be noted

–The image file (ISO/NRG image) may be present locally on the Remote Storage server or on an assigned network drive.

–When the host on which the Remote Storage server is located is booted, you must start the image file “manually”.
