Configuring A Cd-Rom Or Floppy Disk Drive As A Remote Storage Device - NEC Express5800/320Ma User Manual

Configuring a CD-ROM or Floppy Disk Drive
This procedure explains how to configure a local CD-ROM or floppy disk device as a
remote storage device that you can mount on the Express5800/320Ma system. See
"Configuring and Connecting Remote Storage Devices" on page 4-10
information about configuring devices to mount on the host.
Once configured, a device remains in the list of configured devices until the VTM
console session ends or until you click Request iSCSI Logout or Force iSCSI Logout.
To configure a CD-ROM or floppy disk as a remote storage device
1. Click the Manage tab, and then click Remote Storage.
2. In the Remote Storage Settings dialog box, select the iSCSI slot you want to
configure (0, 1, or 2).
3. Click LocalMedia Login, and then click Yes or No to indicate whether to include

4. In the iSCSI Server Target Configuration dialog box, select the device to be
mounted, and click Next.

from being saved to the floppy disk, click readonly to select it, and click OK.
