Redirect Storage Media

Before You Begin

To redirect storage media (CD/DVD or ISO image) from your desktop to a host server, follow these steps:

  1. In the Oracle ILOM Remote Console window, click the Devices menu.
  2. In the Devices menu, perform the following actions:
    1. Enable the appropriate storage device or image setting.
      Option
      Description
      CD-ROM
      Choose CD-ROM to enable the local CD device. This option causes your local CD-ROM drive to behave as though it were a CD device directly attached to the remote host server.
      Floppy
      Choose Floppy to enable the local floppy device. This option causes your local floppy drive to behave as though it were a floppy device directly attached to the remote host server.
      CD-ROM Image
      Choose CD-ROM Image to specify the location of a CD-ROM image on your local client or network share.
      Floppy Image
      Choose Floppy Image to specify the location of a floppy image on your local client or network share.

      Note - Floppy storage media redirection is not supported on SPARC systems.



      Note - If you are installing software from distribution media (CD/DVD), ensure that the media is inserted in the redirected drive. If you are installing software from an ISO image, ensure that the ISO image is stored on your local client or network shared file system.


      A dialog appears prompting you to specify a storage drive location or image file location.

    2. To specify the storage drive location or image file location, perform one of the following actions:
      • In the Drive Selection dialog box, select or type a drive location, and then click OK.
      • In the File Open dialog box, browse to the location of the image, and then click OK.
  3. To reuse these storage settings on the host at a later time, click the Devices menu, and then Save as Host Default.

    Note - The operation of a redirected CD drive or diskette can vary depending upon its state. For more information about understanding these different behaviors see the following section.


Interpreting CD and Diskette Redirection Behavior

Use the information in the following table to help identify different case scenarios in which the CD drive or diskette drive redirection functionality might behave during a Remote Console session.

Case
Status
DVD as Seen by Remote Host
Diskette as Seen by Remote Host
1
Remote Console application not started, or Remote Console started but DVD/diskette redirection not started.
DVD device present. No medium indication is sent to the host from Oracle ILOM when the hosts asks.
Diskette device present. No medium indication is sent to the host from Oracle ILOM when the host asks.
2
Remote Console application started with no medium present in the drive.
DVD device present. When the host asks, which might be automatic or when you access the device on the host, the remote client sends a status message. In this case, since there is no medium, the status is no medium.
Diskette device present. When the host asks (for example, you double-click a drive), the remote client sends a status message. In this case, since there is no medium, the status is no medium.
3
Remote Console application started with no medium, then medium is inserted.
DVD device present. When the hosts asks (automatic or manual), the remote client sends a status message as medium present and also indicates the medium change.
Diskette device present. When the host asks (manual), the remote client sends a status message as medium present and also indicates the medium change.
4
Remote Console application started with medium inserted.
Same as case 3.
Same as case 3.
5
Remote Console application started with medium present, then medium is removed.
Next command from the host will get a status message indicating medium not present.
Next command from the host will get a status message indicating medium not present.
6
Remote Console application started with image redirection.
Same as case 3.
Same as case 3.
7
Remote Console application started with image, but redirection is stopped (which is the only way to stop ISO redirection).
Driver knows DVD redirection stopped, so it sends a medium absent status on the next host query.
Driver knows DVD redirection stopped, so it sends a medium absent status on the next diskette query.
8
Network failure.
The software has a keep-alive mechanism. The software will detect keep-alive failure since there is no communication and will close the socket, assuming the client is unresponsive. Driver will send a no medium status to the host.
The software has a keep-alive mechanism. The software will detect unresponsive client and close the socket, as well as indicate to the driver that the remote connection went away. Driver will send a no medium status to the host.
9
Client crashes.
Same as case 8.
Same as case 8.
