HP Integrity Virtual Machines Installation, Configuration, and Administration Version A.03.50

To complete a DVD ejection and insertion, follow the virtual console menus. However, new
media selections might require the help of the VM Host administrator. Changes through the
virtual console are not saved across guest OS reboots
If the VM Host administrator sets up a Virtual DVD for the virtual machine, the virtual console
eject and insert command unlock and lock the physical VM Host CD/DVD drive. The eject
command changes the Virtual DVD into a Virtual NullDVD in the VM, unlocking the VM Host
CD/DVD drive in the process. The physical media in the VM Host CD/DVD drive can then be
changed by the VM Host administrator or the guest administrator if access is permitted. Once
the media has been changed, the insert command can be used to change the Virtual NullDVD
back into a Virtual DVD, locking the VM Host CD/DVD drive and making the newly loaded
media now accessible by the virtual machine. For example:
