Managing remote file shares

Using Remote File Share (RFS) feature, you can set an ISO or IMG image file on a network share and make it available to the managed server’s operating system as a virtual drive by mounting it as a CD or DVD using NFS, CIFS, HTTP or HTTPs. RFS is a licensed feature.

Remote file share supports only .img and .iso image file formats. A .img file is redirected as a virtual floppy and a .iso file is redirected as a virtual CDROM.

You must have Virtual Media privileges to perform an RFS mounting.

This feature is available only with the iDRAC Enterprise or Datacenter license.
