and you attempt to disconnect and reconnect within the Virtual Media applet, it can fail. The iconturns green, but the additional CD-ROM drive does not display in My Computer.To resolve this problem, reboot the host server, and, after the operating system is available, theVirtual Media CD/DVD-ROM is ready for use. This problem only occurs on servers with no physicalCD/DVD-ROM drive.• Linux• Red Hat LinuxOn servers with a locally attached IDE CD/DVD-ROM, the virtual CD/DVD-ROM device isaccessible at /dev/cdrom1. However, on servers without a locally attached CD/DVD-ROM, suchas the BL-class blade systems, the virtual CD/DVD-ROM is the first CD/DVD-ROM accessible at/dev/cdrom.The virtual CD/DVD-ROM can be mounted as a normal CD/DVD-ROM device using:mount /mnt/cdrom1• SLES 9The SLES 9 operating system places USB-connected CD/DVD-ROMs in a different location andthe virtual CD/DVD-ROM can be found at /dev/scd0, unless there is already a USB-connectedlocal CD/DVD-ROM, in which case, it would be /dev/scd1.The virtual CD/DVD-ROM can be mounted as a normal CD/DVD-ROM device using:mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom11See "Mounting USB Virtual Media CD/DVD-ROM in Linux (on page 90)" for step-by-stepinstructions.Mounting USB Virtual Media CD/DVD-ROM in Linux1. Access iLO 2 through a browser.2. Select Virtual Media in the Virtual Devices tab.3. Select the CD/DVD-ROM to be used and click Connect.4. Mount the drive using the following command:mount /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1For SLES 9:mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom1Creating iLO 2 disk image filesThe iLO 2 virtual media feature enables you to create diskette and CD-ROM image files within the sameapplet. Creation of DVD image files using the Virtual Media applet is not supported. The image filescreated from the applet are ISO-9660 file system images. The performance of iLO 2 virtual media is fasterwhen image files are used. The utility to create iLO 2 Virtual Floppy and CD-ROM disk image files isintegrated into the Virtual Media applet; however, images can also be created using industry-standardtools, such as DD.To create an image file:1. Click Create Disk Image.2. Select the local media drive from the dropdown menu.3. Enter the path or file name in the text box or click Browse to select an existing image file or tochange the directory in which the image file will be created.Using iLO 2 90
4. Click Create. The virtual media applet begins the process of creating the image file. The process iscomplete when the progress bar reaches 100%. To cancel the creation of an image file, clickCancel.The Disk>>Image option is used to create image files from physical diskettes or CD-ROMs. TheImage>>Disk option is not valid for a Virtual CD-ROM image. The Disk>>Image button changes toImage>>Disk when clicked. Use this button to switch from creating image files from physical diskettes tocreating physical floppy diskettes from image files.iLO 2 Virtual Media privilegeThe ability to use the iLO 2 Virtual Media is restricted by an iLO 2 <strong>User</strong> Privilege. Authorized users musthave the Virtual Media privilege to select a Virtual Media Device and connect it to the host server.Virtual Media applet timeoutThe Virtual Media applet does not timeout when Virtual Media is connected to the host server. The VirtualMedia applet closes if the user logs out.Operating system USB supportTo use virtual media devices your operating system must have support for USB devices. Your operatingsystem must also support USB mass storage devices. Currently, Windows® 2000 SP4 and later,Windows® 2003, RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4 and SUSE SLES 9 have the required support. Otheroperating systems may also support USB mass storage devices.During system boot, the ROM BIOS will provide the USB support until the operating system loads. SinceMS-DOS uses the BIOS to communicate with storage devices, utility diskettes that boot DOS will alsofunction with virtual media.NOTE: RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 will not allow you to provide a driver diskette using virtual media.Virtual indicatorsThe Unit ID LED is the blue LED on the <strong>HP</strong> server that is used for identifying systems in a rack full ofservers. iLO 2 enables you to view the status of the Unit ID LED and change the status using iLO 2 Webpages.The Unit ID LED flashes whenever a critical Remote Management task that should not be interrupted iscurrently active on the server.The Unit ID LED flashes when the:• Server is under active iLO 2 Remote Console control.• iLO 2 firmware is being updated.Using iLO 2 91
