Remotely exporting a disk drive to the host
1 On the remote system, log into the ALIF 2112T using the VNC viewer.
2 Press F8 and then V to display a Virtual Media dialogue box:
3 You can select an entire drive or a disk image (e.g. .iso) file:
• Select a disk drive: Click the checkbox adjacent to the listed disk drive
that you wish to make available to the host computer,
or
• Add a Disk Image File: Select the disk image file and click Open.
4 In the Virtual Media dialogue box, click the OK button to announce the
availability of the drive to the host computer. On the host computer, the
new drive will appear in the same way as any removable drive would on
your computer.
Note: Remember, at this point the selected drive has not yet been
transferred to the host system, it is just visible there.
5 On the host computer (either directly or via the VNC viewer) locate the new
virtual drive (shown as a Removable Disk) and copy the files to the required
location on the host computer.
Note: The Remote File or Folder section of this Virtual Media dialogue box
provides yet another method of creating a virtual drive from some files or
folders, as described above.
Remote Drive(s)
This section lists any
located storage devices
on the remote system that
are 2GB or less, and which
could be copied en masse
to the host computer, if
desired.
When the Create ISO
Image option is ticked this
creates a bootable disk so
that it's possible to boot
the host computer from
the virtual media drive.
Remote Files or Folders
Click Browse to search
for and select single or
multiple files/folders to
be copied to the host
computer.
