You can reserve the virtual media session. When a session is reserved and the associated KVM session
is closed, another user cannot launch a KVM session to that target device. If a session is not reserved,
another KVM session can be launched.

You can reset the USB 2.0 interface adapter. However, this action resets every form of USB media on
the target device. Use this option with caution, and only when the target device is not responsive.
