Users Guide

● If the Virtual Media client is active, and you attempt to establish an RFS connection, the following error message is displayed:
Virtual Media is detached or redirected for the selected virtual drive.
The connection status for RFS is available in iDRAC log. Once connected, an RFS-mounted virtual drive does not disconnect even if
you log out from iDRAC. The RFS connection is closed if iDRAC is reset or the network connection is dropped. The Web interface and
command-line options are also available in CMCOME Modular and iDRAC to close the RFS connection. The RFS connection from CMC
always overrides an existing RFS mount in iDRAC.
NOTE:
● CIFS and NFS supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
● When the iDRAC is configured with both IPv4 and IPv6, the DNS server can contain records associating the iDRAC hostname
to both addresses. If IPv4 option is disabled in iDRAC, then iDRAC may not be able to access the external IPv6 share. This is
because the DNS server may still contain IPv4 records, and DNS name resolution can return the IPv4 address. In such cases, it is
recommended to delete the IPv4 DNS records from the DNS server, when disabling IPv4 option in iDRAC.
● If you are using CIFS and are part of an Active Directory domain, enter the domain name with the IP address in the image file
path.
● If you want to access a file from an NFS share, configure the following share permissions. These permissions are required because
iDRAC interfaces run in non-root mode.
○ Linux: Ensure that the share permissions are set to at least Read for the Others account.
○ Windows: Go to the Security tab of the share properties and add Everyone to Groups or user names field with Read &
execute privilege.
● If ESXi is running on the managed system and if you mount a floppy image (.img) using RFS, the connected floppy image is not
available to the ESXi operating system.
● iDRAC vFlash feature and RFS are not related.
● Only English ASCII characters are supported in network share file paths.
● The OS drive eject feature is not supported when virtual media is connected using RFS.
●
RFS through HTTP or HTTPs feature is not available on CMC web interface.
● RFS may get disconnected when iDRAC IP is not reachable for more than 1 minute.
Remote-Dateifreigabe über die Web-Schnittstelle konfigurieren
So aktivieren Sie die Remote-Dateifreigabe:
1. Gehen Sie in der iDRAC-Webschnittstelle zu Konfiguration > Virtuelle Medien > Verbundener Datenträger.
Daraufhin wird die Seite Verbundener Datenträger angezeigt.
2. Wählen Sie unter Verbundener Datenträger die Option Verbinden oder Automatisch Verbindenaus.
3. Geben Sie unter Remote File Share (Remote-Dateifreigabe) den Abbilddateipfad, den Domänennamen, Benutzernamen und
Kennwort an. Weitere Informationen zu den Feldern finden Sie in der iDRAC Online-Hilfe.
Beispiel für einen Dateipfad:
● CIFS – //<IP to connect for CIFS file system>/<file path>/<image name>
● NFS – < IP to connect for NFS file system>:/<file path>/<image name>
● HTTP – http://<URL>/<file path>/<image name>
● HTTPs – https://<URL>/<file path>/<image name>
ANMERKUNG:
Zur Vermeidung von E/A-Fehlern bei CIFS-Freigaben auf Windows 7-Systemen, ändern Sie die folgenden
Registrierungsschlüssel:
● Legen Sie HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\LargeSystemCache auf 1
fest.
● Legen Sie HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\Size auf 3 fset.
ANMERKUNG: Für den Dateipfad kann sowohl das Zeichen '/' als auch '\' verwendet werden.
CIFS unterstützt IPv4- und IPv6-Adressen, NFS jedoch nur IPv4-Adressen.
Bei einer NFS-Freigabe muss der genaue <Dateipfad> und <Imagename> eingegeben werden, da zwischen Groß- und Kleinschreibung
unterschieden wird.
