Remote Storage

7.16Remote Storage

The Remote Storage feature provides the managed server with a “virtual” drive which is physically located elsewhere in the network. The source for the virtual drive can be a physical drive (floppy disk drive CD-ROM/DVD-ROM) or an ISO image (image file).

IIn order to use the iRMC S2/S3 function Remote Storage, you require a license key (see page 167).

You can make the remote storage media available as follows:

–As a physical drive or image file at the remote workstation (see page 113). The image file may also be a network drive (with drive letter, e.g. “D:” for drive D).

–As an image file centrally in the network via a remote storage server (see page 127).

IParallel remote storage connections: The following are possible concurrently:

–either up to two Remote Storage connections to virtual drives at the remote workstation (if the connection is established over the AVR Java applet) or

–one Remote Storage connection to a Remote Storage server.

Remote storage connections via applet and Remote Storage Server are not possible simultaneously.

The Remote Storage page allows you to display information on the status of the current remote storage connections and establish the connection to a remote storage server.
