Remote Storage connections

11.2 Connecting a storage medium as remote

storage

Remote Storage makes a “virtual” drive available which is located elsewhere in
the network.
The source for the virtual drive can be:
Physical drive or image file at the remote workstation. The image file may
also be on a network drive (with drive letter, e.g. “D:” for drive D).
Image file provided centrally in the network by means of a remote storage
server.
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.
It is not possible to establish concurrent Remote Storage connections via
an applet and via the Remote Storage server.
IThe Remote Storage page of the iRMC S2/S3 web interface allows you to
obtain information on the status of the current remote storage
connections (see page 312).
For detailed information on remote storage, see chapter "Remote Storage" on
page 111.
