Creating the iLO 2 MP Disk Image Files

The iLO 2 MP vMedia feature enables you to create CD and DVD image files within the same
applet. The image files created are ISO-9660 file system images and El Torito bootable CD images.
The performance of the iLO 2 MP vMedia is faster when image files are used. The utility to create
the iLO 2 MP CD/DVD disk image files is integrated into the vMedia applet.
Store image files on your client computer or on a network drive that can be accessed from the
client using a fast network segment. A disk image file produces better performance than using
a physical CD in your client computer.
Use the Disk>>Image option to create image files from physical diskettes, CDs, or DVDs. The
Image>>Disk option is not valid for a virtual CD/DVD image. The Disk>>Image button changes
to Image>>Disk when clicked.
NOTE:
The iLO 2 MP Create Media Image utility does not currently support USB devices in
Linux or NetWare.
The following procedure explains how to create an iLO 2 MP disk image file:
1. Select Local Image File in the Virtual CD-ROM section of the vMedia applet.
2. Select Local Media Drive from the list.
