Purpose
Load
a virtual optical media disk from the Virtual Media Repository into
a virtual optical device.
Description
The
loadopt command
loads the specified virtual optical disk (
FileName) into the
specified virtual optical device (
VirtualTargetDevice).
Note: A
particular virtual disk can only be loaded into more than one file-backed
virtual optical device simultaneously if the virtual DVD is designated
as read-only. If the virtual optical device already has a different
virtual disk loaded, the command will fail unless the -f flag
is specified, in which case an implicit unload will be performed first.
